Dear Shareholders,

This year marked a pivotal transition for the Domestic Petroleum and Petrochemical Industries, with the amalgamation of two leading entities, namely PTT Aromatics and Refining Public Company Limited and PTT Chemical Public Company Limited, to form PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited, which now serves as PTT Group’s Chemical Flagship. Our Olefins and Aromatics outputs and vertically integrated businesses, totaling 8.2 million tons per year of chemical products and 228,000 barrels per day of petroleum, consists of seven core business groups: Refining, Aromatics, Olefins, Polymers, Ethylene Oxides, Green Chemicals, and Specialty Products. PTT Global Chemical represents a giant step forward and a significant phenomenon in forging chemical innovations for Thailand’s petrochemical and chemical business through its integrated production lines.

From the overall economic perspective, 2011 remained a healthy year for PTT Global Chemical Group’s businesses. Although in the latter half, with sluggish demand for downstream products due to the dire situation in Europe, where several countries were facing sovereign debt crises and the weakening of US economy while China and several Asian nations tightened their monetary policies to keep inflation in check. As a result of tariff reduction for petrochemical products in line with the ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (AFTA) and the Great Floods in Thailand late in the year, prices and demand for our products saw some drops.

Nonetheless, as a whole, the world economy of the East continued its impressive growth, contributed by the manufacturing and export sectors, together with Asian consumption (with constant expansion). In other words, the sluggishness of the West and the tightening of monetary policies of several Asian countries hardly affected PTT Global Chemical Group’s businesses. To elaborate, ours is an integrated petrochemical and oil refinery business together with feedstock flexibility, and strong customers’ base. These key factors significantly lowered the volatility of our performance. As a result for year 2011, from the unaudited pro-forma

Message

from the Chairman

consolidated financial statements, the Company had revenue from sales of 500,305 million baht and net profit of 30,033 million baht or 6.66 baht in earning per share. As far as investment growth is concerned, our core strategic plan calls for Olefins and Aromatics capacity expansion and value addition through investment made in related downstream industries and investment in the chemical industry-whose price cycles differ from those of the petrochemical industry, to stabilize product sales while adding reliability to our long-term sales revenue and profits. In addition, PTT Global Chemical Group is undertaking an expansion of production capacity - some projects have already been carried out, and others are in the beginning stages of commercial operation, such as the LDPE and HDPE plants, and also an Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel Euro IV Standard project while the possibility of expansion to the Aromatics plant 2 is being studied. More international ventures have emerged, including our joint venture with Perstorp Holding SAS of France to expand our investment base in High Volume Specialties and build on the business of specialty chemicals. In addition, we have shown keen interest in environmentally friendly products by focusing on research and development of Bioplastics and Biochemicals, as evident in the acquisition of Myriant Corporation and NatureWorks shares to join leading US companies renowned for their Green Production Technology. These latter moves will add value to our products, meet market needs, use alternative energy and environmentally friendly products, and accommodate the growth of assorted industries. PTT Global Chemical values and is committed to good corporate governance-a common practice of both companies before the amalgamation by cultivating ethical and integrity values among all employees, conducting transparent business and paying serious attention to conformance to related laws and regulations. Meanwhile, key principles of good corporate governance are applied to business execution together with a process to promote and plan personnel development through systematic knowledge so that our personnel may perform quality work and ably accommodate our long-term growth. After all, we recognize that our personnel are vital to our progress, and that we also must cultivate good citizenship filled with social responsibility in both good and needy times. A case in point is the Great Floods of late 2011. Besides donating money and articles to relieve flood victimsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plight, PTT Global Chemical Group and employees joined rescue teams alongside PTT Group in scouring flooded areas to provide help and restore peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s state of mind.

Environmental management is of paramount importance to us, who are firmly committed to running the business with systematic environmental management of international standards. In all projects and all producing units, now and in the future, this is an integral part of our corporate social responsibility and fits in well with the international practices of conducting businesses that strike a balance among industry, society, and the surroundings to achieve sustainable development. On behalf of the Board of Directors, may I extend my most sincere gratitude to all related parties for consistently supporting our business. Now that we are better equipped as a result of the amalgamation, the blended knowhow, skills, business strength due to good corporate governance, and awareness of corporate social responsibility - it is my conviction that PTT Global Chemical will become an entity of excellence, filled with the potential for growth and leadership in the integrated petrochemical and chemical business of international stature. We will strive to forge not only sustainable business value, but also sustainable security for Thailandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy and society in the years to come.

(Mr. Prasert Bunsumpun)

Global and Thai Economic Trends in 2012-2016 The world economy for 2012 will likely expand by 2.5%, a mild drop from the 2.8% projected for 2011, before slowly taking off to more than 3% afterward in 2013. As a result, it is expected that the world economic growth will average a moderate of 3.5% over the next five years, spearheaded by emerging economies like China, India, and ASEAN. While Chinese economy is expected to slow down in 2012, it is still forecasted to expand at 8.2% before reaching 9% in 2013 and averaging at 9.5% afterward. On average, this economy will therefore be expanding at 9.1% over the next five years. India also has impressive economic potential, surpassed only by China. Again, though its economic growth is expected to slow down in 2012, it will likely post a good 6.3% growth rate before climbing to more than 7% in 2013 and approaching 8% afterward. On average, Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy will be expanding at 7.6% over the next five years. The economy of Europe, particularly that of Eurozone countries, looks set to be in the doldrums because of sovereign debt crises. Greece, Ireland, and Portugal, all of which have requested help from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), still faced a prospect of continued recession in the short term as a result of severely austere monetary policies. Meanwhile, several other countries with similar sovereign debt crises, like Italy and Spain, still struggled to maintain the money marketâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s confidence in their ability to repay debts so as to avoid facing the costs of loans, which may rise to unmanageable levels, and avoid seeking help from the European Union and IMF - since that would reflect situations even worse than at present, thus complicating solutions to sovereign debt crises. These support the expectation that the Eurozone economy would recede in 2012 to 0.7% before picking up to nearly 1% in 2013 and 1.7% afterward. In short, the Eurozone economy will probably expand at modestly by about 1% over the next five years, and unemployment rate will therefore stay around 10% over the long haul. That said - one crucial assumption is that the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sovereign debt crises need to be sorted out. The US economy, while also facing a similar sovereign debt crisis and high unemployment rate is more likely to recover, albeit slowly in the short term, because of its more efficient monetary and treasury policy implementation than Eurozone. The US economy is projected to grow by 2% in 2012 before rising to about 3% in 2014 and then 3.4% afterward. In short, the US economy will moderately expand at about 3% over the next five years.

World and Selected Economies Growth % 11.0 9. 7. 5. 3. 1.

Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy, while receding in 2011, looks much better in 2012 and is expected to grow by 1.6% before registering remarkable improvement to 2% in 2014, but may falter a bit afterward. In short, Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy will register mild expansion at about 1.6% over the next five years.

2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Note : ASEAN-5 includes Indonesia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam: NIEs includes Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore and Taiwan Sources : IMF, BOT and market survey China Asean-5 NIEs US Eurozone India Thailand World UK Japan

The Thai economy, devastated by the Great Floods in 2011, is expected to rebound well in 2012 with a growth figure of 4.9% against 1.0% in 2012 before expanding impressively at about 5.6% in 2013. In short, the Thai economy will be expanding moderately at 5% over the next five years.

-1.0 -3.0 -5.0 -7.0

The encouraging trend of economic recovery of the world and key regions in 2012 and over the next five years may either improve or falter significantly from the above-mentioned trends - subject to several risk factors. First, development of the sovereign debt crises, which could turn either positive or negative - to the point of threatening the existence of the Euro or Eurozone. Second, development of the economic policy conduct and management of the sovereign debt crises of the US and Japan, which again could boost the confidence of the money market or simply sap it. Third, development of the economic growth of emerging economies (particularly those in Asia), which could either become stable and push economic growth in the long term or come to a screeching halt and undermine growth potential in the long term. Finally, international political conflicts, which could be resolved rapidly or worsen to the point that the world oil price could skyrocket or an oil shortage could result. The world economy will be affected by these four developments, as well as national and regional economies, thus altering the economic picture significantly both next year and over the next five years. Besides the risks - facing the world economy, the Thai economy is still exposed to floods and drought in 2012 or afterward, which could significantly undermine economic growth, particularly if macro-management and planning of these matters lack efficiency. At the same time, Thailandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s readiness to become part of the ASEAN economic community in 2015 is bound to prove pivotal for trade of goods and services, investment migration, labor migration, and capital migration. This will also significantly affect the Thai economy over the next five years.

Refinery and Shared Facilities Overview As a leader of Thailand’s oil refiners and suppliers of refined products, PTTGC owns and operates a most advanced complex refinery, one of the most energy-efficient in Asia Pacific, thanks to the flexibility of refining processes and the ability to supply refined products in quantities matching customers’ demand. The refinery has a capacity of 145,000 barrels per day of crude intake, with a wide range of high-quality refined products expected of a complex refinery with hydrocracker, and visbreaker units, capable of converting fuel oil into middle distillates. The Company values businesses and activities in support of the security and integration of the petrochemical business. To illustrate, PTTGC Group owns a jetty and petrochemical tank farm to provide production security, such as when production processes are not functioning or during maintenance turnarounds. These also serve as storage for imported and exported petrochemical products, and in service provision to downstream petrochemical plants.

Performance overview This year PTTGC’s petroleum production totaled 57.6 million barrels from a crude intake 58.8 million barrels as raw materials, with one planned maintenance turnaround (47 days) during the first quarter, as well as continuous process efficiency improvement as strategically planned and summarized below: • Replaced catalysts at the reformate unit for higher aromatics yields • Replaced catalysts at the hydrocracker unit for higher diesel and jet fuel yields. PTTGC constantly undertook the following projects to mitigate environmental impacts, including process improvement, to ensure optimal resource consumption. • Installed a Low NOx Emission system at the unit 3 gas-turbine power generator, the last unit, lowering the emission of nitrogen oxides by 20% • Operated the Upgrading Complex Phase 2 Project, also known as the Deep Hydro Desulfurization (DHDS) Project, to produce low-sulfur diesel of the EURO IV standard, with a start-up in December 2011. PTTGC sold a total of 55 million barrels, grossing USD 6,450 million in revenue. PTTGC’s domestic sales of its main products (diesel and jet fuels) accounted for 72% of the refinery’s total capacity or a 19% of domestic market share. PTT Plc. remained its biggest product customer.

PTTGC secured new customers, particularly those for fuel oil, thus giving itself greater flexibility for processing and sale. Petroleum products sold in Asian - Singapore and Vietnam, accounted for about 35% of total petroleum sales.

Market and competition • Crude oil price For the first half of the year, the Dubai crude oil price (“Dubai”) soared from the end of last year, buoyed by the unrest in Middle Eastern and North African countries, lowering world oil supply and pushing Dubai to peak at USD 118 per barrel in April - a two-year high. Commodity prices - including those of crude oil - started to fall during the second half of the year with the economic slowdown and the lowering of the US financial rating to AA+; meanwhile, China exercised a more stringent monetary policy to combat inflation. The sluggish economic expansion took place during the latter half of the year. Equally important, the sovereign debt crises of Eurozone countries threatened Italy, Spain, and Greece. As a result, world economic growth lost some steam, thus lowering its oil demand. In the meantime, the situation in Libya was improving in October, meaning that Libya was returning to its oil-producing role. These factors caused Dubai to drop to USD 100 per barrel in the third quarter. During the fourth quarter, however, fresh unrest brewed in oil-producing countries like Iraq, Kazakhstan, and Nigeria, coupled with the greater tension in the Middle East due to the international sanction against Iran’s nuclear energy project and encouraging economic recovery signs in the US. These pushed Dubai to about USD 110 per barrel toward the year-end, with a tendency to level off until the beginning of 2012. • Petroleum product prices This year the spreads between petroleum products and Dubai continued to rise from those of the previous year because of the expanding petroleum product demand in line with world economic growth, particularly in Asia. Meanwhile, supply of petroleum products became significantly tight after the March earthquake and tsunami in Japan, as summarized below :

• Gasoline : (ULG 95) crake spread : This spread remained elevated through the year, peaking in September at USD18.1 per barrel due to an unplanned shutdown of the refinery of Formosa Petrochemical Corporation in Mailiao, Taiwan, and that of the Dung Quat refinery in Vietnam. This spread fell in November, when the average gasoline price dropped to USD 3.9 per barrel with the return to operation of such refineries and the lower demand due to floods in many Asian countries. For the year, the spread averaged USD 13.5 per barrel (a 31% rise) against last year’s USD 10.3 per barrel. • Jet/kerosene crake spread : This spread soared from that of last year, a result of the heightened demand due to prolonged frigid weather in various regions, including the US, Europe, and Asia, and the recovery of production and aviation sectors for cargo transport and international travel alike. Also, the March earthquake and tsunami in Japan took away more than 1 million barrels of refining products. In addition, jet fuel stockpiling for winter in Japan and the emergency shutdowns of Taiwan’s and Singapore’s refineries during the third quarter hiked the spread from USD 12.1 per barrel last year to USD 19.4 per barrel this year - a 60% rise. • Diesel crake spread : This spread also soared as a result of Japan’s earthquake and tsunami in March as well as from China’s export ban on diesel during the second and third quarters for its own reserve use for power generation in the summer - a result of the drought in the northern part of that country and the lower dam-water levels for the purpose. As a result, the average spread this year climbed from USD 11.4 per barrel last year to USD 18.3 per barrel - a 61% rise. • Fuel oil crake spread : This spread dropped from that of last year against the soaring crude oil price, but since the bunker oil demand by the shipping industry lingered and since demand was rising for power generation to make up for nuclear power plants damaged by Japan’s earthquake and tsunami, the spread this year dropped to USD -5.2 per barrel (a 30% drop) from USD -3.9 per barrel last year.

With the market in a tight state, competition among refineries this year was mild, notably during the first half of the year and Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earthquake and tsunami, which resulted in a loss of 1 million barrels having to shut down in March. Besides, the refinery of Formosa Petrochemical Corporation in Mailiao, Taiwan, caught fire in late July, dealing a loss of about 540,000 barrels per day in August, which continued to early September. Meanwhile, oil demand was steadily rising, notably in Asia. While Thailandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s refinery business was affected by the floods toward the year-end, thus depressing oil demand, the impact was mild, since IRPCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s refinery had planned a maintenance turnaround during the same period, thus taking away some domestic supply.

Aromatics Overview PTTGC produces and distributes primary aromatics, namely benzene, paraxylene, orthoxylene, toluene, mixed xylenes, and cyclohexane (intermediate product) - as feedstock for intermediate and downstream industries. Today PTTGC runs two aromatics unit, both aromatics complexes boast the technology of UOP, a world-renowned licensor known for constant upgrading. Both facilities allow feedstock and product exchange to optimize paraxylene and benzene production by : â&#x20AC;˘ Mixed Xylenes from Aromatics Complex I as feedstock in Aromatics Complex II â&#x20AC;˘ Toluene from Aromatics Complex II as feedstock in Aromatics Complex I

Business unit operation Production PTTGC enhanced aromatics production capability through continuous improvement of processes to be able to use diverse raw materials, which promoted output flexibility in line with a volatile market, and through constant capacity expansion to ensure the most efficient use of its assets. As a result, PTTGC commanded lower production costs and was internationally competitive. A summary of factors supporting its capability appears below : â&#x20AC;˘ Production technology developed by leading experts and accepted as technology with continuous improvement and constant production efficiency upgrading â&#x20AC;˘ Reformer unit (where feedstock is staged before going into the aromatics unit) that provides feedstock blending to accommodate both domestic condensate (with high aromatics contents) and imported condensate (with higher sulfur contents)

• PTTGC’s location in Map Ta Phut Industrial Estate, in the vicinity of major customers, and its pipeline system, a predominant mode of product transport, which is highly convenient, speedy, and cost-saving.

Efficiency improvement and maintenance This year PTTGC produced a total of 2.05 million tons of aromatics with an 88% utilization rate and continuous process efficiency improvement. The year saw Aromatics Complex I suspend its production for 12 days as planned to improve efficiency. Below is a summary of the efficiency improvement moves during the year : • Replaced heat exchanger of the distillation tower (Parex unit of Aromatics Complex II) to produce 25,000 tons per year of additional paraxylene • Added value to the process offgas at Aromatics Complex II by installing a pipeline system for using it as feedstock in the olefins plant rather than as fuel use in process • Added value to excess sour naphtha from Aromatics Complex I and Aromatics Complex II by installing a pipeline system to the refinery to produce reformate • Improved cyclohexane process to enable it to operate during Aromatics Complex I turnaround, thus lowering its opportunity loss by 15 days

Market and competition This year the aromatics market improved in line with world economic expansion, which dramatically hiked the needs for downstream products of paraxylene and benzene, namely electronics products, computer parts, automotive parts, and polyester, fiber, and resin products. New downstream producers also entered the market, notably those in China, thus boosting the demand for paraxylene and benzene. Also dramatically rising were the prices of crude oil and naphtha. These factors pushed the average paraxylene price to USD 1,541 per ton (a 47% rise) and the average benzene price to USD 1,091 per ton (a 21% rise) for the year. Below is a detailed description of the spreads between these products and condensate (their feedstock) :

• Paraxylene & benzene spreads: The peak were reached in the first quarter at USD 672 and USD 256 per ton, a result of higher downstream and intermediate demand for paraxylene and benzene in Asia, Europe, and the US, and the higher demand posed by downstream (notably paraxylene) newcomers during that period. Meanwhile, supply became tight because of emergency shutdowns by aromatics plants in Japan in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami there. • In the second quarter, demand for intermediate and downstream products slowed down with dramatic rises in raw material and naphtha costs. Therefore the spreads fell from those of the first quarter to USD 624 (paraxylene) and USD 173 per ton (benzene). • In the third quarter, these spreads remained relatively unchanged at USD 598 and USD 192 per ton. While power generation problems due to the drought in China had eased, resulting in higher outputs by intermediate and downstream operators (PTA and polyester) in China, and raw material and naphtha costs had dropped, the greater supply from a new aromatics plant in South Korea effectively stunted the spreads to effectively the same level as in the second quarter. • In the final quarter of the year, aromatics prices were pressured by economic problems of European countries, suppressing the demand for intermediate and downstream products. Meanwhile, China’s tough economic measures deprived downstream producers of liquidity and made them cut their capacities. The spreads therefore reached their year-lows at USD 572 and USD 84 per ton. Overview competition in the paraxylene market this year was fairly tame, thanks to the tight supply in Asia. Domestically, PTTGC sold about 82% of their outputs. The Company has been highly competitive because of its pipeline transport of products, which has kept its costs lower than those of its competitors. As for its export markets, PTTGC sent its products to China, the world’s largest paraxylene market. Again, PTTGC’s logistics has proved superior to those of other regional producers. As for benzene, PTTGC successfully maintained its domestic market share at 50% of its output, with pipeline product transport as the primary mode. Benzene was exported to Singapore, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, and India - markets where the Company competed logistically. Incidentally, its benzene products were widely accepted by the market for their quality, so they could compete with others.

Olefins Overview PTTGC Group produces olefins (a collective name for ethylene and propylene) for sale to intermediate and downstream petrochemical plants in the industrial estate, to HDPE, LDPE, and LLDPE plants within the Group, and to the ethylene oxide/ethylene glycol (EO/EG) plant of TOC Glycol Co., Ltd. (TOCGC), wholly owned by PTTGC. At the year-end, its olefins nameplate capacity totaled 2,880,000 tons per year, consisting of 2,376,000 tons per year of ethylene and 512,000 tons per year of propylene. The Group also produces and sells olefins by-products, namely mixed C4, pyrolysis gasoline, tail gas, cracker bottom, and hydrogen, to domestic customers. To supplement value to these, PTTGC will operate the butene-1 and butadiene project from mixed C4 with a combined capacity of about 100,000 tons per year. Today, the plant’s basic engineering design has been completed, with a start-up date in about the second quarter of 2014. PTTGC also values businesses and activities in support of security and integration of the petrochemical business by producing and selling essential public utilities, namely power, steam, and industrial water (consisting of treated water, potable water, and demineralized water, for consumption in the Group’s olefins plants and distribution to a group of downstream petrochemical plants within its concessions and other companies in Map Ta Phut Industrial Estate. At the year-end, the Group commanded 210 megawatts (MW) in power-generating, 620 tons per hour in steam capacity, 2,080 cubic meters per hour in industrial water capacity, and 1,000 cubic meters per hour in sea water reverse osmosis (SWRO) capacity.

Performance This year PTTGC’s olefins business continued to post good results, partly accounted for by higher spreads than those of last year, as summarized below : • Strengthened its olefins advantages in raw materials by managing its assets for optimum benefits, specifically by improving key processes and equipment to boost processing efficiency • Added distribution and marketing capability together with development of key information systems for activity planning to boost domestic and international competitiveness, apart from preparing the Company for future growth • Introduced software systems, like SCM and SAP, to bolster business efficiencies

Market and competition • Domestic market

Domestic ethylene production this year amounted to 3.9 million tons, a 34% rise1 from that of last year, with the start-ups of new cracker plants, namely the 1-million-ton/year plant operated by PTTPE (PTTGC’s subsidiary) and the naphtha cracker plant operated by MOC since 2010 (which was more fully on-stream this year). Several producers suspended their operations this year as planned for maintenance, and others lowered their capacities because of a shortage of feedstock, which were getting more expensive. On the whole, however, Thailand’s ethylene output rose to keep up with the 31% rise in demand over the year2 because a new downstream plant, namely the 300-KTA LDPE plant of PTTPE, came on stream in the first quarter, while a 350-KTA LLDPE plant of Siam Polyethylene Co., Ltd., (which started up last year) was ramping up, but could not keep up with the demand, thus needing to import more ethylene for these plants. Still, some ethylene was exported as a measure of managing outputs and sales during the year., The bottom line is that Thailand was a net importer of about 31,000 tons of ethylene.3

As for domestic propylene outputs, the year saw a drop of about 7%4 because new, on-purpose propylene units, namely the metathesis unit of MOC and the PDH unit of HMC Polymers (on-stream since last year), were not fully on stream. Meanwhile, PTTGC’s 100-KTA PDH unit underwent a planned maintenance turnaround, as well as for market reasons, in the first and third quarters, lasting 79 days, and the 6% reduction5 in propylene demand from last year, necessitated propylene exports instead to manage outputs. The bottom line was that Thailand remained a net exporter of about 130,000 tons6 of propylene as a result of domestic supply still exceeding domestic demand.

• Asian olefins market It was another good year for Asian olefins producers because the average prices proved substantially higher than those of last year: ethylene at USD 1,188 per ton (a 10% rise) and propylene at USD 1,387 per ton (a 23% rise)7

This was because in the first half of the year, the market was rather tight, as several regional cracker plants underwent maintenance shutdowns and capacity reduction - both planned and unplanned (process problems). Shell Chemical’s 800-KTA plant in Singapore and Ethylene Malaysia’s 400-KTA plant in Malaysia took out 1.73 million tons8 in ethylene supply. Add to this the lower supply from the Middle East to Asia because of their maintenance turnarounds and their decisions to export the commodities to Europe for greater profitability. Ethylene prices were also boosted by the higher prices of crude oil and naphtha because of the unrest in many countries in the Middle East and North Africa. Incidentally, the March earthquake and tsunami in Japan had little impact on the regional ethylene market, thanks to adequate inventory by producers.

In the second half of the year, ethylene market prices lost ground because of the sluggish demand for downstream products, resulting from China’s tough measures to rein in inflation and from global economic uncertainty, particularly in the US and European countries (both major export markets of downstream producers). What happened was that such producers slowed down their buying and ordered just enough for their processing, causing ethylene prices to drop by about 12% from the first half of the year.

On the whole, these factors dropped the profitability of naphtha-based ethylene producers from that of last year, as seen in the spread between ethylene and naphtha this year of USD 266 per ton by USD 97 per ton from that of last year.9

The Asian propylene market this year likewise proved tighter. This is because several Asian on-purpose propylene units shut down for planned maintenance or for production problems, in addition to the fire at Formosa’s petrochemical complex in Taiwan in late July, causing disruption at the 325-KTA RFCC (residual fluid catalytic cracker) unit and the 250-KTA OCU (olefins conversion unit) and the explosion at Shell Chemical’s 500,000-barrel/day refinery in Singapore toward the end of September - as a result, a part of the 800,000 tons per year of ethylene capacity and 450,000 tons per year of propylene capacity disappeared from the market. These losses, combined with other cracker shutdowns and capacity drops took away about 1.05 million tons of propylene from the market. Certainly, the rises in crude oil and feedstock prices also had something to do with it. These factors led to the higher prices of propylene in Asia than those of ethylene. Incidentally, the propylene-naphtha spreads this year averaged USD 466 per ton, a rise of about USD 47 per ton from that of last year.10

Asian market competition for olefins this year proved fairly stable during the first half of the year, with markets in a tight condition. In the second half of the year, however, with the sluggish demand arising from global economic uncertainty, including that in the US and the Eurozone, together with Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough monetary measures to keep inflation in check, the market was in oversupply. As a result, price competition grew fierce. PTTGC, however, was relatively spared from such market conditions, thanks to its olefins production and distribution security and - equally important - its predominantly ethylene-based petrochemical processing in both intermediate and downstream plants, namely its own MEG and HDPE units. Besides, more than 80% of its olefins are derived from natural gas - which has kept its costs competitive worldwide.

To maintain its competitiveness, PTTGC is committed to keeping business returns decent by devising plans, including those for inventory management, production cost reduction, and cash-flow management. 1-6 (PTTGCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own estimate) 7-10 (Source: ICIS)

Polymers Business Unit Overview The polymers business takes up from the olefins business, both related to daily living and consumer applications. Polymers find themselves converted to general consumer products, essential goods for the industrial sector and agricultural sector, and goods that add convenience to modern lifestyles, which is why the Group is focusing on this business. Today, PTTGC produces HDPE at a 300,000-ton/year capacity plus a 500,000-ton/year capacity of a subsidiary (Bangkok Polyethylene Co., Ltd.) for a total of 800,000 tons/year - all distributed under the InnoPlus trademark. Various grades of HDPE are produced for film, blow molding and tube, pipe, injection, and fiber work, all of which can be modified for desired properties and applications, including merchandise bags, drinking water bottles, milk bottles, lubricant containers, household utensils and articles, toys, and products for construction and the agricultural sector like ropes, seines, nets, crates, stands for goods, water pipes, and electrical conduits. The Group sells HDPE to domestic and international molding factories through PTT Polymer Marketing Co., Ltd. (PTTPM), a joint venture between PTTGC (25%), PTT (50%), and IRPC (25%) and a marketing and distribution agent for all PTT Group companies to promote their marketing capability worldwide. In addition, PTT Polyethylene Co., Ltd. (PTTPE), a wholly owned subsidiary, began its commercial production of LLDPE at a capacity of 400,000 tons/year in January 2010, and that of LDPE at 300,000 tons/year in February this year. Both products find applications in molding into assorted containers. Finally, Thai Styrenics Co., Ltd., wholly owned by PTTPE, produces 90,000 tons/year of polystyrene (PS). All these give PTTGCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s polymers products great diversity.

Performance Belonging to the downstream petrochemical industry, polymer production is capital-intensive with rather volatile prices subject to the price cycles of crude oil and supply-demand, much like other petrochemicals. If one can control production costs and have a secure customer base, one can survive in the long term. The Company’s advantages lie in its long-standing experience in HDPE production, its cordial relations with reputable technology licensors together with transfer of world-class technology and continuous product development. PTTGC’s polymers have won certification of prestigious standards, or are in the process of doing so, including ISO 9001 (quality management standard), ISO 14001 (environmental management standard), TIS 18000 (occupational health and safety management standard), and ISO 17025 (or Guide 25, laboratory management standard). These assure the Company that it can manage production with efficiency, thus deriving maximum benefit from production and securing low unit production costs. PTTGC boasts systematic, world-class environmental management systems that are on top of potential problems resulting from its operation, while commanding continual improvement approaches, described as follows : • An installed reverse osmosis system for treatment of effluent for reuse as clarified water for process cooling, which lowers the volume of effluent and optimizes natural resources - an application of the eco-efficiency concept • Additional installation of other high-efficiency equipment to ease environmental impacts, including bag filters for product transport to silos and silencers installed at process equipment • Installation of a display board in front of the Company in Rayong for data on environmental management, plans to minimize and treatment of pollutants, and projects being undertaken to minimize and treat pollutants from Group plants to show commitment and transparency in the Company’s environmental operation • Support to the addition of green areas on the Company’s compounds, communities, and the vicinity to ease global warming under its plan to minimize and treat pollutants. This year the Polymers Business Unit participated in reforestation activities at the Huai Mahat community and on traffic islands of Map Ta Phut Industrial Estate, and in weir-building at the Huai Mahat and Chak Luk Ya communities • Implementation of a plan to reduce VOCs at every piece of polymer process equipment • A wastewater treatment system to handle all process wastewater • A solid-waste treatment system through sorting, sale, or disposal by companies authorized by the Department of Industrial Works

• A liquid-waste treatment system through sale as fuel to companies authorized by the Department of Industrial Works

Market and competition The year’s domestic economy saw steady growth in plastic product demand during the first two quarters, thanks to economic stimuli in the run-up to the general elections and declaration of a clear policy by the new government. Unfortunately, the Great Floods of late 2011 put a brake on plastic producers, both directly and indirectly, in the last two quarters. The floods ravaged plastics factories in the Central Region, with 64% facing problems and over 30% having to suspend manufacturing, with a rippling effect on other industries, including the automotive, electrical appliance, and other industries of production supply chains - with purchase orders plummeting. Yet, demand for drinking water bottles, containers, boats, sand bags, and other essential tools in times of floods soared during the period of the floods. Therefore, demand for the entire year posted a 3.8% rise from that of the past year. Other major domestic manufacturers of plastics are : • IRPC Plc, regarded as Thailand’s pioneer manufacturer of polymer production, commands integrated petrochemical businesses encompassing upstream and downstream, including HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PP, EVA, ABS, and PS. At present, IRPC is one of PTT’s affiliate companies , as does PTTGC. Therefore, both are allies and have potential to be business partner in the future. • Thai Polyethylene Co., Ltd. (TPE), an affiliate of Siam Cement Group, commands integrated petrochemical production, with its HDPE operation preceded only by IRPC. With feedstock received from an olefins plant in the same group (namely Rayong Olefins Co., Ltd.), while partially sourcing olefins supply volume from PTTGC. TPE is also produce LDPE and LLDPE. • Siam Polystyrene Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Siam Cement Group and Dow Chemical Thailand (the world’s leading producer of chemicals and polymers), produces PS from SM feedstock received from Siam Styrene Monomer Co., Ltd., another Siam Cement Group company.

EO-Based Performance Business Unit Overview To supplement value to olefins and accommodate demand of industrial production and consumers, PTTGC Group recognized the need to manufacture higher-value products not yet available domestically so as to displace imports and add competitiveness to Thailand’s petrochemical industry. To this end, the Group turned to EO-based performance products. • EO/EG TOC Glycol Co., Ltd. (TOCGC), wholly owned by PTTGC, produces ethylene oxide (EO) and downstream product ethylene glycol (EG), with mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) as the core product. MEG is the feedstock for polyester fiber for the textile industry and production of clear PET bottles. TOCGC’s MEG capacity is 300,000 tons/year. For the MEG capacity expansion project by 95,000 tons/year, an EHIA report is under preparation, with production suspended due to a court injunction under the Map Ta Phut case. • Ethoxylate Thai Ethoxylate Co., Ltd. (TEX), a company 50% owned by PTTGC, runs the EO derivatives project. Ethoxylate is feedstock for the production of shampoos, dishwashing liquid, and cleaning solutions. With a capacity of 50,000 tons/year and with a commercial start-up in November 2006, it is Thailand’s first such plant. • Ethanolamines Thai Ethanolamines Co., Ltd. (EA), produces ethanolamines, a blending agent in the production of hair conditioners, fabric softeners, cosmetics, and the pharmaceutical industry. With a 50,000 ton/year capacity, the plan had a commercial start-up in February 2011.

Performance • TOCGC values energy matters through exercising energy conservation, leveraging plant design to control machinery operation, including inspection of heat exchange from chemical reactors such that heat transfer occurs at the maximum production rate, less reliance on steam imported from the steam plant, increased circulation of latent-heated substances for heat transfer during the production stage, detection of production equipment that consumes excessive power, and scheduling to shave peak power consumption for large water pumps. TOCGC therefore maintained its market competitiveness. • EA values actions related to institution of systems for ISO 9000, ISO 14001, and TIS/OHSAS 18001, with certification from MASCI already granted. EA also ensured that no air pollution escapes to the atmosphere. • TEX maintained its competitiveness, evident in year-round purchase orders and full-steam operation. It also initiated assorted projects that have contributed to energy saving and process efficiency improvement.

Market and competition MEG is one of feedstock material of the polyester product and a downstream core feedstock for the textile industry and the clear plastic-bottle industry, its market situation align with that of the polyester industry. This is particularly true in the Chinese market, where MEG demand and imports top all other countries, including other Asian countries that still need to import MEG to constantly meet market needs. As for the overall ethanolamine market, the year saw a business down-cycle, with slowdowns and lower demand by operators in related industries, including personal-care product, weed-killing drug, and construction industry. As a result, ethanolamine prices suffered and are projected to level off in 2012. Ethoxylate is strongly associated with the domestic personal care and home care businesses. But because of the Great Floods in the late 2011, the overall ethoxylate market expanded mildly. As for worldwide marketing and distribution of these products, the world’s major MEG producers, namely SABIC, MEGlobal, and Shell, are based in the Middle East and other countries worldwide. Each year these producers expand their capacities for greater economies of scale and competitive

advantages over others to accommodate global MEG demand through direct and agent sales. All suppliers have tried to maintain their market shares in Thailand, especially those with key customers. Similarly, for EA, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major producers are OUCC, Optimal, Ineos, and Dow, based in Asia and other regions. These producers have long been in this business, with good relations with their customers and distributors in every region of the world. For TEX, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major market and distributors are Dow, Optimal, Shell, Huntsman, Clariant, and Sasol. Their main production bases are in Asia for advantages in labor costs and raw material costs. Production bases are scattered around the world.

Green Chemicals Business Unit Overview Green chemicals are processed primarily from natural materials like palm oil, palm-kernel oil, vegetable oil, or animal fats, yielding countless downstream products. Since Thailand boasts a sound geographical location and favorable climate for oily plants that are perfect for conversion into oleochemicals, coupled with the rising demand for alternative energy and green products, PTTGC seized this opportunity of developing green chemicals as a business unit, with investments made in subsidiaries and joint ventures summarized as follows : • Thai Oleochemicals Co., Ltd. (TOL), wholly owned by PTTGC, has a capacity of 200,000 tons/year of methyl ester and 31,000 tons/year of glycerine. • Thai Fatty Alcohols Co., Ltd. (TFA), wholly owned by TOL, has a capacity of 100,000 tons/year of fatty alcohols. • Bio Spectrum, a 75%-25% joint venture with Inventa Technology (S) Pte. Ltd., produces carotenoid, an extract from methyl ester for food coloring. Its production unit is under construction. Below are three joint-venture companies with PTT Chemical International Pte. Ltd. (a PTTGC Group company) : • Emery Oleochemicals (M) Sdn. Bhd. (Emery) - a 50%-50% joint venture with Sime Darby Plantation (Malaysia) - boasts 962,000 tons/year in oleochemicals capacity and acquired assets of the Multi-Purposed Reactor (MPR) from TFA. With 14,000 tons/year of capacity, MPR came on stream this past year. • Myriant Corporation., a 46%-54% joint venture with former shareholders (via PTTGC International (USA) • NatureWorks LLC, a 50%-50% joint venture with Cargill Inc. of the US. (via PTTGC International (USA) The two latter companies are leading ones renowned for their green chemical production technologies with a focus on research and development of bioplastics and biochemicals.

Performance TOL maintained its ISO 9000, ISO 14000 (environmental management system), TIS 18001 and OHSAS 18000 (occupational health and safety assessment system), GMP (good manufacturing practice, a key fundamental system for food safety), and HACCP (hazard analysis and critical control point) certification, together with certification from the Halal Standard Institute of Thailand. These illustrate TOL’s consistent commitment to quality, customers’ satisfaction, the environment, surrounding communities, and its care for the safety and health of all contractors and employees. As for marketing and commercial aspects, in a highly competitive market, TOL and TFA have constantly improved their production quality by running projects to add efficiency and cut production costs, including energy saving in production (particularly electricity and steam). Ideas have been forwarded on product value addition to meet customers’ demand and boost confidence in products through quality improvement and continual services for customers’ maximum satisfaction. Meanwhile, Emery has expanded its production by investing in plastic additives through cooperation between itself and PTTGC to move the plant from Map Ta Phut to Malaysia. Adjustments were made to raise its capacity to forge synergy with shareholders in the best interests of all.

Market and competition This year saw tremendous volatility for domestic methyl ester, particularly early 2011, when domestic crude palm oil was in short supply, causing the government to revoke its subsidy to B5 biodiesel and require only B2 biodiesel, effective from March. With increasing supply of crude palm oil toward the year-end, another adjustment saw B4 biodiesel come into enforcement. As a result, the year’s demand for methyl ester plunged. In 2012, however, B5 biodiesel will be enforced from January, which should improve the domestic methyl ester situation. As for overseas markets, biodiesel demand is eclipsed by capacity, as seen in the domestic market. In the world market, the methyl ester situation is fluid because of the substantial rises in the prices of palm oil and soybean oil (both raw materials) due to variable weather, which slashed agricultural outputs. The higher the raw material prices, the higher the methyl ester prices. Emery Oleochemicals expects competition from Europe and the US (where the ester is derived from animal fats) to persist.

The fatty alcohols market continued its steady rise from last year, thanks to the surge in demand in the early months, as several Asian producers concurrently suspended their production, resulting in a shortage of fatty alcohols. Still, some grades of the alcohols still posted healthy demand, which resulted in mild rises for the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall demand. Global demand this year came to 2.6 million tons, which was eclipsed by global capacity (3.8 tons per year). Significant factors for the fatty alcohols market are the volumes and prices of raw materials, that is, those of palm-kernel oil and coconut oil. The former was rising and will continue to be elevated in 2012. Higher prices will, however, force some producers to slash their capacities or temporarily suspend production and manage their inventories. Nevertheless, once the prices of raw materials rise, fatty alcohols will become more costly. Worldwide operators of value-added oleochemicals consist of KLK, IOI, OLEON, and WILMAR, all of which boast production and distribution bases around the world. As for the domestic market, the major producers of methyl ester are Patum Vegetable Oil Co., Ltd., and Pure Biodiesel Co., Ltd. Others produce methyl ester solely for biodiesel production, especially in the South of Thailand, a well-known palm-growing base.

High Volume Specialties (HVS) Overview Apart from the six business units previously mentioned, PTTGC features other chemicals collectively called specialty products, for which a new business unit was set up by the name of High Volume Specialties (HVS). To date, PTTGC has put some investment into this business, including that with PTT Group under the name of PTT Phenol Co., Ltd. (PPCL), which operates a phenol project with a capacity of 200,000 tons/year, with commercial production since March 2009, together with a called Bis-Phenol-A (BPA), with a capacity of 150,000 tons/year and whose commercial production began in April 2011. In addition, PTTGC is about to officially acquire 51% of the common shares in Perstorp Holdings France SAS through PTT Global Chemical International (Netherlands) Co., Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of PTT Chemical International Pte. Ltd. (“CH Inter”). Perstorp has 125,000 tons/year in toluene di-isocyanates (TDI) and 24,000 tons/years in Hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) capacity for the raw material for polyurethane (PU) production, with wide applications in the automotive industry, and so on.

Performance • PPCL has a nameplate capacity of 200,000 tons/year of phenol and 124,000 tons/year of acetone, together with 150,000 tons/year of BPA, with plants located in Hemaraj Eastern Industrial Estate in Rayong. • The Perstorp Holding France SAS joint venture boasts facilities for TDI, HDI, and derivatives on commercial production and located in France and the US, with the following capacities and outputs :

PPCL successfully maintained its competitiveness, with year-round purchase orders and full capacity utilization this year. It also initiated projects to cut energy consumption and raise process efficiency, and so on.

Market and competition 2011 was a good year for the phenol product line. During the first three quarters, favorable global economic factors pushed growth, particularly factors in Asia. Demand from the staple market in China remained healthy, supported by the tight supply caused by the March tsunami in Japan, annual maintenance turnarounds of regional plants, and production problems in some of the plants in Asia. Nevertheless, since the late third quarter, demand again weakened, particularly that for BPA, caused mainly by the Chinese governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strict monetary measures. In addition, the sovereign debt crises of Eurozone countries and the frail US economy contributed to the weak demand for goods. TDI commands markets worldwide of about 1.8 million tons, with an average annual growth rate of 4.6%. Last year, Asiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demand totaled 822,000 tons for this largest and most robust market (6.4%), followed by Europe and the Middle East (a combined 584,000 tons/year, with a 3.8% growth rate) and the US (441,000 tons/year, with a 2.0% growth rate). Most TDI applications are in the PU foam group for the automotive, furniture, and office equipment industries.

This year the overall economy continued to pick up. But since the prices of raw materials were 55% higher than those in 2009, with WTI crude prices averaging USD 79.52 per barrel and toluene prices averaging USD 1,072 per ton, TDI producers’ margins fell from 2009 by USD 380 per ton. TDI average price is USD 2,364 per ton for the year. (Source : CMAI) Since PPCL’s phenol plant is the only one in Thailand, it has faced competition in marketing and sale only from foreign producers, particularly those from China, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. Asia’s major producers of phenol and acetone consist of the Mitsui Chemicals group, Sinopec group, Kumho P&B, Formosa Chemicals & Fibre Corporation, LG Chem Co., and Chang Chun Petrochemical Co., Ltd. As for the BPA business, while in Thailand there are two such plants (PPCL and Bayer Thai), Bayer Thai produces BPA for captive use, that is, almost solely for polycarbonate production, PPCL has faced competition from overseas rivals, meaning those in China, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. Asia’s major BPA producers are Mitsui Chemicals group, Kumho P&B, Nan Ya Plastics Corp., Chang Chun Petrochemical Co., Ltd., Mitsubishi Chemical Corp., and LG Chem Co. No producer of TDI and HDI is based in Thailand, whereas the majors in Europe and Asia are : • BASF produces TDI and other products related to PU production. With plants scattered around the world, BASF is regarded as a certified rival that is very close to its customers. • Bayer produces TDI and HDI, as well as other products related to PU production. Like BASF, with plants located around the world, Bayer is regarded as a certified rival that is very close to its customers and boasts research and development capability for production technological advantages.

The awards and recognition won this year are a guarantee of PTTGC’s determination to pursue business excellence over the past years.

Quality, Security, Safety, Occupational Health, and Safety (QSHE) Policy PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited, PTTGC commits to be a Leading Chemical Company for Better Living with innovation, filling with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and commitment to continuously improving of QSHE effectiveness. We commit to: 1. Comply with security, safety, occupational health, and the environment laws and regulations, as well as related standards and other requirements. 2. Total Quality Management with quality management system, knowledge management, and productivity to meet customer’s satisfactions, including product development with to environmental friendly concept. 3.

Take care of occupational health and good work environment, including health promotion and happy workplace. 5. Evaluate impact to environment and minimize by focusing on prevention and improvement at-source, including resources consumption efficiency. Evaluate impact to environment and minimize by focusing on prevention and improvement at-source, including resources consumption efficiency. All PTTGC Executives are accountable to be role models for improvement and maintain of QSHE system with adequate resources support for employee participation and implementation, including widely communication of QSHE performance throughout organization.

Environmental Performance PTTGC Group values environmental impact prevention and pollution reduction for the least impacts by putting in place control and preventive measures as early as the pre-operation stage. An example is the commissioning of detailed Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) investigation as stated in its EIA reports, defining measures for prevention and mitigation, defining suitable environmental monitoring measures, and applying the ISO 14001 environmental management system to its operating areas. The Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strategic environmental management plan, equipped with economic feasibility, accompanies long-term business conduct. To illustrate, a management philosophy known as Eco-efficiency serves as a systematic, continuous environmental performance indicator. Consisting of water consumption, energy consumption, global warming contribution, ozone-depleting substances, and wastewater generation; Eco-efficiency helps improve resource consumption and lower the amount of process waste and emission so that the Company may run a green business, which benefits not only business, but also the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s environment. By focusing on sustainable development for the Group was jointly define goals to reduce waste to landfill to be zero by 2015, in addition to managing process waste and that resulting from plant activities strictly as required by laws and regulations. To achieve this reduction, they rely on the 3R approach (reduction, re-use, and recycling) in tandem with current, suitable innovation technology. At the same time, they conduct research and development work to add value to waste, which represents an approach called Eco-industry, while adding management measures superior to legal requirements through strict selection of industrial waste processors. This can be achieved by selecting proper waste management techniques that bolster confidence in effective treatment and by requiring transporters of hazardous waste to install the GPS tracking system on all trucks so as to prevent illegal dumping and apply waste otherwise internal reusable or recyclable by the Company to other industries.

The Group has also made preparations for the international market by investigating the carbon footprint of HDPE derived from the PTTGC 2 (HDPE production unit) so as to assess the volume of carbon dioxide released for 11 grades of products, and has won carbon footprint labels from Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization, Thailand’s central agency for this matter. This pilot project will lead the way for other products under the Group, signifying its leadership of the petrochemical and downstream businesses. In addition, PTTGC applies assorted pollution prevention measures, including conservation of air quality in Map Ta Phut through its control of Volatile Organic Compound (VOCs) at storage tanks and truck transfer points; development of a VOCs inventory and equipment upkeep to minimize VOCs emission; use of clean fuels to minimize sulfur dioxide (SO2) discharge; and improvement of combustion in gas-fired power turbines to minimize nitrogen oxide (NOx) discharge. Incidentally, its Clean Fuel Project was completed ahead of schedule, which enabled it to sell low-sulfur diesel that meet EURO IV requirements before the end of the year, so a part of the Thai car fleet are now running on this green fuel while cutting down on domestic air pollution. In addition, PTTGC ensured transparent environmental management by installing air quality measurement tools (Continuous Emission Monitoring) at each plant stack, with measurement readings going to the Map Ta Phut Industrial Estate’s Environmental Vigilance Center around the clock. PTTGC has also developed an in-house greenhouse gas inventory of activities by collecting data under three scopes. Scope 1 applies to greenhouse gas emission from the Company’s own activities. Scope 2 applies to emission from the power and heat purchased by the Company. Scope 3 applies to assorted Company activities under 2006 IPCC and ISO 14064-1:2006. All of these will contribute to efficient greenhouse gas emission management in addition to establishing PTTGC’s direction and policy for risk reduction, given future climate change. Recognizing the value of water sources, PTTGC has installed systems for maximum recycling of water while lowering plant effluent by recycling part of the treated wastewater in assorted plant activities, and manages a water settling system to ensure that its effluent is superior in quality to what is required by law before discharge.

PTTGC’s policy is to conserve energy and the environment throughout its processes, including an energy conservation project for wastewater treatment systems and a similar project for its cooling water systems. These contribute to the identification of suitable approaches and choices for energy conservation and the reduction of chemicals in processes. This concept maximizes the use of natural resources while improving green production processes.

Safety Management PTTGC values employees’ and contractors’ safety alike by raising their awareness of safe work for themselves and colleagues under a culture that strives for an injury-free organization in tandem with SHE Management System, Process Safety Management, and Contractor Safety Management. PTTGC Group plants have won for the 14th year in a row the National Outstanding Business Operator in Safety, Occupational Health, and Work Environment Award (from 1998 to 2011), echoing the Company’s focus and consistency in safety. The Company has joined Map Ta Phut Industrial Plants Group in staging provincial emergency drills as well as actual evacuation of communities around the RIL Industrial Estate. It also assigned employees who are skilled in emergency response matters to join the Rayong provincial governor, Rayong disaster prevention officers, Map Ta Phut municipality, and Map Ta Phut Industrial Plants Group in developing community emergency response plans and conducting emergency drills should plant accidents occur and affect communities. Another key area is oil spill retrieval ability. PTTGC has joined the Rayong Oil Spill Emergency Response drills with Oil Industry Environmental Safety Group Association (IESG) and related government agencies, including the Marine Department and the Royal Thai Navy, in testing the preparedness of emergency plans, oil slick removal, and communication with neighboring communities of action plans for oil slick removal by the Company and the Sub-Committee on the prevention and remedy of oil spills in Rayong. PTTGC is also the member of the Emergency Mutual Aid Group (EMAG), which plays a part in drafting emergency response plans for Rayong province, as well as the emergency response plans for industrial estates in Map Ta Phut, Rayong.

Occupational Health Management Out of its concerns for employees, particularly production process operators, the Company regularly reviews their physical examination programs, particularly those exposed to hazardous substances, so as to remain proactively vigilant for their well-being. In addition, it has plan for workplace hygiene monitoring, specifically heat, light, noise, and chemicals; the data contribute to the improvement of the work environment. Besides employees’ well-being, this year PTTGC launched one “Health caravan” to provide preliminary physical check-ups for community members with a focus on mothers and children. At the event, volunteer employees helped out - even on holidays.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Financial Result for Year 2011 PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries (“the Company”) was formed by the amalgamation between PTT Chemical Public Company Limited (“PTTCH”) and PTT Aromatics and Refining Public Company Limited (“PTTAR”) and registered as a new entity on October 19, 2011. As a result, the audited financial statements represented the performance only for the period of October 19, 2011 to December 31, 2011. However, for the Company’s performance analysis purpose, the Company prepared unaudited pro-forma consolidated financial statements for year 2011 in comparison with year 2010, and hereby prepared management’s discussion and analysis. 1. Executive Summary For the period of October 19, 2011 to December 31, 2011, the Company had revenue from sale of Baht 104,433 million and net profit of Baht 2,113 million with the summary of Company’s performance as follows. October 19th-December 31st, 2011 (Million Baht) % Revenue from Sales 104,433 100% EBITDA 7,068 7% Net Profit 2,113 2% EPS (Baht) 0.4

In 4Q/11 world economy remained vulnerable from the Euro zone public debt crisis and Chinese monetary policy, resulting in a slight decline in Dubai crude oil price compared to 3Q/11 while the demand for petroleum and petrochemical products remained low as buyers were concerned about the direction of world economy, therefore, managed to purchase products to match the demand only and had not built up their inventory to prepare for year-end holidays in 2011. As a result, spreads of products over feedstock, for instance, spread of gasoline to Dubai, and paraxylene and benzene to Condenstate declined, and spread of HDPE to Naphtha remained low. Furthermore, flooding in Thailand in 4Q/11 had lowered the demand for electricity usage and resulted in lower level of ethane gas received from the supplier. The above reasons had caused certain impact on the Company’s overall performance.

The Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s FY 2011 unaudited pro-forma consolidated financial statements recorded net profit of Baht 30,033 million, increased by 84% from FY 2010 with net profit of Baht 16,320 million with the summary as follows : (Unit : Million Baht) FY 2011 FY 2010 + (-) Revenue from Sales 500,305 375,304 33% EBITDA 54,422 34,877 56% Net Profit 30,033 16,320 84% EPS (Baht) 6.66 3.65 82% The primary reason that contributed to the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s improved performance was the increase in olefins capacity of 1.0 million tons/year, resulting in the capacity increase from 1.88 million ton/year in 2010 to 2.88 million ton/year in 2011 or by 53%. In addition, Dubai crude oil price increased by 28 USD/barrel.

In 2011, Dubai crude oil price was averaged at 106 USD/barrel, increasing from 78 USD/barrel in 2010. Spreads of Jet/Kero to Dubai and Diesel to Dubai increased by 58% and 64%, respectively. In addition, spreads of aromatics products to Condensate also moved up according to increasing feedstock price and strong demand but tight supply. As a result, spread of PX to Condensate increased by 57%. As for Olefins market, naphtha price (MOPS) increased by 29% to 922 USD/barrel, as a result, average prices of ethylene (SEA) and HDPE (SEA) moved up as a cost-push effect. Ethylene price increased to 1,187 USD/ton or increased by 10% from 2010 and HDPE (SEA) increased to 1,373 USD/ton or increased by 12% from 2010. However, capacity additions of Olefins and HDPE (SEA) remained high resulting in a narrow spread of HDPE (SEA) to Naphtha (MOPS) of 451 USD/ton, decreased by 8%.

2. Operating Result from October 19 to December 31, 2011 During the period of October 19 to December 31, 2011, world economy was mainly affected by the Euro zone public debt crisis and Chinese monetary policy. Dubai crude oil price dropped to 106 USD/barrel in 4Q/11 from 107 USD/barrel in 3Q/11. Petroleum products prices dropped significantly in 4Q/11 i.e. gasoline to Dubai spread decreased from 17 USD/barrel in 3Q/11 to 10 USD/barrel in 4Q/11, diesel to Dubai spread decreased from 19 USD/barrel in 3Q to 18 USD/barrel. As for aromatics prices, spread of PX and BZ to Condensate significantly decreased from 638 USD/ton in 3Q/11 and 165 USD/ton to 531 USD/ton and 49 USD/ton in 4Q/11, respectively. Olefins prices also saw a significant decline. Ethylene to naphtha

spread decreased from 223 USD/ton in 3Q/11 to 191 USD/ton in 4Q/11. HDPE to naphtha spread went down from 463 USD/ton in 3Q/11 to 459 USD/ton in 4Q/11. Such decrease was due to the concern over world economy, therefore, buyers purchased only as necessary and maintained low inventories.

In addition, flooding situation in central part of Thailand and Bangkok did not directly affect the company as all plants and subsidiaries located in Rayong and were not flooded. However, the company was indirectly affected as an electricity company had to reduce its utilization to meet lower usage during the incident. The Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gas feedstock provider, PTT, had to adjust the balance of production and gas sales which resulted in less gas supply to the Company during the period.

Due to the reasons above, the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revenue from operation was Baht 104,433 million with gross margin accounting for 13% of the revenue. As a result, EBITDA margin was 7% of revenue. The Company had other income of Baht 1,461 million due mainly to the change in shareholders percentage of PPCL and PTTUT after the amalgamation totaling Baht 594 million.

3. Operating Results for the Period of January 1-December 31, 2011 3.1 Market Situation Petroleum Market Condition in 2011 Dubai crude oil price was averaged at 106 USD/barrel as against 78 USD/barrel in 2010. The price moved up by 28 USD/barrel or 36% as supported by unrest in the Middle East and North Africa particularly in the first half of 2011 coupled with instability in Tunisia and Egypt, resulting in a decrease in global crude supply by approximately 1 million barrel/day. As a result, Dubai crude price reached the highest level in two years, with an average of 118 USD/barrel in April. However, in the second half of the year, debt crisis in European countries intensified thus pressured world economic growth. Additional factors affecting price decrease a rating agency S&P downgraded US credit rating from AAA to AA+ and China restricted its monetary policy to reduce inflation rate in the country. All these factors pressured global economy and slowed down world oil demand, resulting in a decrease in Dubai crude price to 106 USD/barrel in 4Q/11.

Aromatics Market Condition in 2011 Aromatics market grew in accordance with world economy particularly the increase in polyester demand as downstream derivative of PX and in electronics appliances as downstream derivative of BZ. In addition, an earthquake in Japan caused several aromatics plants an unplanned shutdown and resulted in a decrease in PX supply. This caused spreads of PX and BZ to Condensate to widen significantly in 1Q/11. However, as the downstream demand in aromatics products started to shrink while feedstock cost and naphtha price became higher, spreads of PX and BZ to Condensate were narrower especially in 4Q/11 when an aromatics plant in Korea started its commercial operation. In 2011, Spread of PX to Condensate went up from 2010 by 220 USD/ton or 56% and BZ to Condensate by 93 USD/ton or 37%.

Olefins Market Condition in 2011 Average ethylene price in 2011 was 1,187 USD/ton and was 1,076 USD/ton in 2010 or increased by 10% while average propylene price was 1,386 USD/ton in 2011 and was 1,132 USD/ton in 2010 or increased by 23%.

In the first half of 2011, ethylene market was quite tight due to the turnaround and cut-run of several plants in the region, resulting in the reduction of ethylene volume in the market by 1.73 million tons. In addition, producers in the Middle East exported less to Asia as they preferred Europe market with higher profits. However, in the second half of 2011, ethylene price in the market reduced continuously due to a quiet downstream derivatives market when China restricted its monetary policy to control inflation rate in the country as well as uncertainty in European economy. All these factors pressured ethylene price to decrease from 1H/11 by approximately 12%. Throughout 2011, spread of ethylene to naphtha was 266 USD/ton, decreasing from the previous year by 98 USD/ton or 27%.

As for propylene price, the market was even tighter due to the turnaround season coupled with technical problem of several propylene production units in Asia. In addition, a fire accident at an olefins plant in Taiwan during end of July and an explosion at one of the refineries (500,000 barrels/day) in Singapore end of September had reduced propylene volume in the market by 1.05 million tons. Spread of propylene to naphtha in 2011 was averaged at 466 USD/ton, increasing from the previous year by approximately 47 USD/ton or 11%.

Polymer Market Condition in 2011 HDPE product price was 1,373 USD/ton in 2011 and 1,224 USD/ton in 2010 or increased by 12%. LLDPE was 1,339 USD/ton in 2011 and 1,290 USD/ton in 2010 or increased by 3%. LDPE was 1,602 USD/ton in 2011 and 1,453 USD/ton in 2010 or increased by 13%.

Market situation of polymer increased considerably in 1Q/11 mainly from an unrest in Middle East which caused crude oil prices as a feedstock of petrochemical products to rise significantly coupled with turnaround of several plants in Asia. However, concerns over debt crisis in European countries intensified as well as monetary policy in China had substantially softened petrochemical market before the market was better from an increasing demand in China from the re-stocking of inventories for Christmas and New Year seasons. However, as continuous concerns over debt crisis in Europe and significant reduction in margins had forced certain producers to cut runs and increase prices, but as downstream products could not move up as much, prices still remained low especially in LLDPE where capacity additions in the Middle East rose considerably.

MEG(SEA) price situation in 2011 increased by 34% to 1,314 USD/ton mainly from stronger demand in MEG and PTA which were feedstock for polyester as well as supply disruption of MEG due to a fire accident of Formosa that halted its production of 1.9 million tons per annum. In 2011, the spread of MEG over 0.65 times ethylene price increased by 258 USD/ton or 91%.

Group Performance Center - Olefins In 2011, olefins utilization rate increased from 71% in 2010 to 80% in 20111. Volume sales of olefins increased 75,115 ton or 11% due mainly to the commercial operation of PTTPE ethane cracker in December 2010. On the other hand, I-4/1 plant was shutdown from operation for maintenance for 18 days (7-24 December) and PTTPE cracker had 1 year warranty shutdown for 42 days. While olefins product price increased from 1,104 USD/ton to 1,287 USD/ton in 2011, an increase of 17%. As a result, product to feed margin of the Company in 2011 was higher at 383 USD/ton while 2010 was at 274 USD/ton.

3.2.3.2 Polymer Business Unit Product to Feed Margin of polymer business unit for 2011 was 452 USD/ton, higher than year 2010 which was at 257 USD/ton due to as follows:

Sales volume of HDPE in 2011 increased from 2010 by 66% mainly due to commercial operations of HDPE additional capacity, BPE2 with capacity of 250,000 tons/year on January 1, 2011. While the utilization rate declined to 95% in 2011 or decline 4%. This was due to shutdown of HDPE I1, BPE1 and BPE2 fo 32 days, 13 days and 84 days respectively.

Sales volume of LLDPE in 2011 increased from 2010 by 19% and utilization rate increased by 25% as a result of PTTPE crack was able to run in full capacity and able to provide ethylene to LLDPE plant as needed. However, in 2011, LLDPE plant shutdown in total of 36 days in accordance to the production of PTTPE cracker plant.

PTTPEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s LDPE plant started up the commercial operation on February 1, 2011 with capacity of 300,000 tons/year. Sales volume of LDPE in 2011 was 158,301 tons. During the year, there were planned shutdown of 93 days in 3Q/11 and unplanned shutdown of 36 days in 4Q/11 which resulted in utilization rate of 55%.

3.2.3.3

EO Based Business Unit Product to feed margin of EO-based business unit was 574 USD/ton in 2011 higher than 2010 which was 366 USD/ton. Sales volume of MEG in 2011 decreased from prior year 17% with utilization rate of 68%, decreased 11% due to a planned shutdown for 43 days in 3Q/11.

Risk Management and Risk Factors Risk Management PTT Global Chemical and its subsidiaries (PTT Global Chemical Group), recognize the risks in operating its business, and have developed a fully integrated systematic risk management. Risk Management Committee (RMC) supervises the risk management through the Company’s Management Committee (MC), RMC’s core mechanism and through the Company’s Commercial and Financial Risk Management, a team in charge of formulating a hedging strategy, and setting price and volume of raw material, feedstock, products and funds to be hedged, all of which are in accordance with the Company’s risk management policy and framework as approved by RMC. The Company has consistently conducted both qualitative and quantitative risk assessment for it subsidiaries, by analyzing financial modeling in order to evaluate the Value at Risk (VaR), which help identifies impacts on the Company’s financial system under possible scenarios. Analysis between impact severity and probability of occurrence is used to ensure full understanding of possible risk affecting the Company’s business objectives and projects’ goals. A risk management plan then aligns with directions set forth by the management - monitoring and analyzing both internal and external factors that may affect production sales, and price of feedstock and products, as well as financial market and economic data, and other business environment, are incorporated. All these are to minimize the probability of risks to occur and/or to mitigate impacts if such risk took place. Furthermore, PTT Global Chemical Group’s risk management practice allows its management and employees to understand changes of information in the same way as to be able to make proper preparation for the risk events to occur.

Risk Factors Even with an international standard risk management system in place, the Company and its subsidiaries are still exposed to an unavoidable set of risks uniquely taking place in the Refinery, Petrochemicals, plastic pellet and others, which may significant impact on project goal or business objectives. These risks can be classifiled into industrial risks and company-specific risk. Nevertheless, even with a well-established risk register, there are other risks not disclosed at the time of this report. Some risks previously ranked and classified as low and non-significant could become high and significant to the Group’s businesses.

Industrial Risks Price Risks Price volatility of products and feedstock can significantly affects the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business performance, which is an inevitable situation, as they are closely tied to the market base price formula, and hence, at the change of global demand/supply driven by economic conditions of the world at large and major consuming nations. They also rely on capacity changes in the world market, which are uncontrollable circumstances.

Mitigation Approach : PTTGC pricing policy aim to create transparent in trading both feedstock and product, by using price formula which reflect several market price. This policy lessens the impact of price volatility to a certain extent. The Company also provides a policy allowing a transfer pricing mechanism of products and feedstock within the Company and the Group when possible and appropriate. This mechanism provides flexibility on price-setting and meanwhile reflects feedstock costs to end-product prices, which in turn alleviate the price impacts as a result of world market price fluctuation, especially during industries down-cycles.

Recognizing risks of oil price and foreign exchange rate fluctuation, RMC has approved a policy and framework for the Company to manage risks associated with products and feedstock prices and foreign exchange rates. A variety of financial instruments including financial derivatives and forwards are in place and managed under the guided policy to minimize such risk exposure.

Moreover, PTT Global Chemical Group has a centralized production planning system aiming an optimal benefit to the Group, when appropriate. This system optimizes the production and sales for maximum benefit under timing and all other constraints. It also minimizes impacts from price volatility of feedstock and products to a certain degree.

PTTGC continuously seeks business opportunities in all product groups and business sectors with high potential and in line with the Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strategic imperatives. Diversity in product groups and business sectors also alleviates negative impacts on particular product prices and decreases fluctuation in revenue and net profits of the Group in the long run. This approach also enhances competitive performance and sustainable growth for the Group.

Feedstock Risks Feedstock risks are basically those of not getting feedstock supply, either due to failure to procure or deliver feedstock by PTT under procurement and delivery agreements, or due to market feedstock shortfall stemming from external factors. Imported crude and other feedstock for Refinery come mostly from the Middle East, the Far East, and West Africa. Factors affecting procurement and delivery from these regions range from geopolitical conditions, crude shipment, transport routes, rules and regulations of traded countries, climate and weather, and regional economies. For the Aromatics business, running the plants relies on condensate supplies from PTT. PTT Global Chemical Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Olefins plants also rely on ethane and naphtha feedstock from PTT. Failure to procure and deliver in the time and amount as stipulated in purchase agreements could result from short supply from PTT, shipment delays, production disruptions at ethane separation plant, and so on. This feedstock risk is a significant negative impact on the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance.

Mitigation Approach : PTTGC has put in place a feedstock contingency plan, including long-term crude supply contracts, crude and condensate reserve inventories, and preparation to secure short-term condensate supply from other sources, as well as a feedstock substitute for naphtha. In addition, close monitoring of procurement and shipment of feedstock and practical, approprate alternative options for condensate shipment and storage are in place to secure the feedstock.

Besides, PTTGC established a system continuously monitoring the movement of external factors and analyzing and making forecasts of all parameters influencing feedstock. The system defines a clear policy and management system mitigating impacts during a feedstock crisis. Cluster-of-Plants Risks Refinery, Petrochemical, Plastic pellet, and Downstream Plants are usually located next to or near either their feedstock suppliers or their customers to reduce the logistics costs. Our plants are located in the Map Ta Phut Industrial Estate which are close to those of feedstock suppliers and major customers. Map Ta Phut has obviously become a strategic location for incidents: serious damages or losses to the plants, facilities, or transport pipelines could lead to severe impact on the operation and financial performance of the Group as well as customers.

Mitigation Approach : In the present global industrial design, plants or related business and facilities are grouped in clusters from day one to reduce risks from resource-sharing, which in turn optimize the use of resources and minimize waste. Sustainable industrial concept like the Green Industrial or the Eco-industrial Concept, where plants within the same cluster share or exchange their byproduct or waste to generate more products and reduce actual waste have become more common. A cluster of plants eases the integrative approach in risk management for the entire cluster and at the same time maximizes the cooperative design on the entire industry, minimizes space for chemical storage facilities throughout the chain process, which are a main source for factory risks. The cluster design can also provide effective sharing of contingencies and facilities, as well as coordinated international safety standards. Synergy can expand to the entire group insuance covering not only facilities under commercial operations, but also those under construction, as incidents from any part could affect the entire Group. Nevertheless, international standards strictly define a safety distance between facilities in order to minimize impacts from the possible escalation of incidents from one plan to other. Furthermore, a mutual aid agreement among plant operators considerably enhances cooperation in emergency prevention and loss severity.

Environmental Risks Chemical reactions and related activities in the Refinery, Petrochemical, Plastic pellet, and downstream industries could impact human health and the environment. Any accidents, force majeure incidents, or operating errors could negatively affect stakeholders, Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s investment plans and performance, as well as the image and reputation of PTT Global Chemical and the Group, both short-term and long-term.

Mitigation Approach : PTT Global Chemical has implemented a clear policy on health, safety and the environment. This policy defines the mission framework beginning from the initiatives of the project. The policy aims to monitor all facets of each project, in technology and process selection, design and installation, operating methodology, safety cultural development, environmental impact assessment, environmental protection and mitigation to stakeholder, legal compliance and strict standard practice, proactive environmental management development and improvement, and eco-efficiency or energy efficiency for organizational and social sustainability. ISO 14001 is the international standard the Company strictly observes for environmental management. The standard includes preparation of environmental impact assessment reports, review and approval, as well as regular and constant

monitoring quality of all environmental aspects by the Office of Natural Resources and Environmental Policy and Planning, followed by communication with all involved. An Environment Advisory Committee consisting of community representatives and related authorities is set up by the Group to participate in internal safety and environmental activities to arrive at a clear understanding of risks and risk management, as well as preventive measures that the Group has launched in their operations and production process.

Financial Risks

(A) Foreign Exchange (FX Risks) Most of PTT Global Chemicalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s products and feedstock are priced in USD-linked currencies. This has somewhat lowered the foreign-exchange risk exposure due to the natural hedging. The main financial risks come from the product-to-feed margin in USD, the difference between revenues from product sales and the feedstock costs, especially when financial returns become lower due to the appreciation of the Baht currency. The volatility and fluctuation of the Baht-USD foreign exchange is the prime financial risk affecting Group performance.

Moreover, the recognition of income and revenue, profit and profit-sharing and dividends, as well as all other accounting figures, strictly adheres to the Thai GAAP (Generally Acceptable Accounting Procedures). Therefore, uncontrollable fluctuation of the foreign exchange of the Baht to other currencies may pose a significant negative impact to PTTGCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accounting and financial performance.

Mitigation Approach : PTTGC has adopted a policy to balance out foreign debts with the product-to-feed margins - the key is to minimize the prime financial risk. Other financial risk-mitigating tools, such as advanced trading in foreign currencies or currency forwards, are also implemented to limit losses in earnings and expenditures in foreign currencies.

(B) Interest Rate Risks Interest rate risks are inevitable when financial market volatility and long-term business expansion plans occur in parallel. It is therefore vital for PTTGC to ensure adequate investment for projects. Interest rates may become too high for project economic viability or cause a shortage of funds available in the market for investment.

Mitigation Approach : To ease the negative impacts of global interest rate fluctuation and rising interest rates when foreign loans are needed for investment, PTTGC has adopted the following financial policy. 1. 2.

Securing short-term loans with financial institutions when investment is necessary. Continuously reviewing debt structures and the adjustment of debt levels with fixed interest rates and those with floating interest rates. The appropriate ratio is determined by the Company’s need for cash and investment and the interest rates of the current market and trends.

Government Policy Risks The Group’s business is directly monitored by government agencies and hence directly and indirectly affected by changes in government policies, especially those implemented in sudden, short-term, abnormal situation, or unplanned by the Group, for example, the LPG policy, policy on renewable and alternative energy industrial policy, national palm oil policy, environmental policy, and investment promotion policies in industrial zones. Altered policies could affect in the short term and the long term to Group performance.

Mitigation Approach : To ease possible impacts, the Group has established a system to monitor key policy changes potentially affecting its performance. Continuous coordination with relevant authorities and private industries, including that on information-sharing, direct and indirect reflective opinions to the policy, and policy changes in specific industrial sectors related to Group activities, is in place.

Company-specific Risks Conflicts-of-Interests Risks Conflicts of interest between PTT Global Chemical and its major shareholder (PTT Plc, which holds 48.92% of its paid-up capital) are possible, since PTT also supplies most of feedstock to the Group, including crude feed for the Refinery, Aromatics, and Olefins feedstock for Petrochemical Plants. PTT is, at the same time, the major buyer of PTT Global Chemical Group products. This possible conflict of interest could sub-optimize the Company’s performance.

Mitigation Approach : Good Corporate Governance (CG) is strictly conformed to so as to ensure proper handling of conflicts of interest. The Company stresses CG practices and business code of conduct, and constantly communicates them with all stakeholders, including the Board, Executives, employees, contractors, and subcontractors. All are expected to observe the CG standard and practices, and strictly apply them whenever conflicts of interest take place. The emphasis also includes guidelines on transactions with shareholders, affiliates or business partners involving shareholders, Directors, or Executives of the Group. For instance, those with vested interests are forbidden to exercise their voting rights on any agenda of possible conflicts of interest at Board meetings and shareholders’meetings. Under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1992 and its Amendment of 2008, PTT Global Chemical, a listed company, is obliged to comply with all regulations, including CG practices on the formal appointments of Independent Directors and the Audit Committee to oversee and safeguard interests of minor shareholders and ensure fair, equal treatment to all stakeholders.

Supplier Risks Supplier risks are obviously possible when the Group relies on PTT, the major feedstock supplier. If PTT could not procure or deliver feedstock under purchase agreements, Group performance would suffer heavily.

Mitigation Approach : PTT is the major shareholder of PTTGC and some companies in the Group. PTT is also the major feedstock supplier under long-term purchase agreements. Suppliers are generally fully aware of PTT Global Chemical’s limitations in seeking and securing new customers. All these facts practically control suppliers’ performance and prohibit them from any non-conformance activities to the contracts, including supplying of a different quality and quantity of feedstock. In practice, supplier risks are relatively low and somewhat protected by procurement and supply contract administration. The same principle can also be applied to crude supply, which is also a core PTT business under a long-term contract with the Group.

Plant Operations Risks At all times, there are possibilities of unpredictable malfunctions and disruptions to plant operation in and outside of PTT Global Chemical Group. Human errors, accidents, disruptions or inadequate supply of utilities (such as electricity, water, and steam), machinery failures, pipeline disruptions, suppliersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plant failures reflecting supply shortage, or customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plant mishaps resulting in a drop in product purchase. All these events are unplanned and unpredictable, but could severely impact the Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operating and financial performance enough to deviate from the business plans.

Mitigation Approach : Recognizing the possibility of these operation risks, the Company has put in place a disaster management plan to control emergency incidents and disruptions, reduce property losses, safeguard personnel and the environment, and resume plant operations as soon as possible. Preventive/predictive maintenance programs are an operating mandate to minimize equipment and machinery risks. These programs include standard operating manuals and planned maintenance schedules for all machines, as well as periodic training to minimize incidents and risk exposure. In addition, PTTGC secures all its commercial operating plants with internationally standard insurance policies : all-risks insurance and business interruption insurance, as well as third-party liability insurance, to minimize possible losses to the Group.

Project Risks Project risks of the Group fall into construction-typed project risks and M&A-typed (merger and acquisition) ones. Risks of projects under construction usually connect on-going construction projects with current commercial projects, most of which disrupt not only the construction of new projects but also supply and production chains, as well as the transmission of electricity and steam of existing facilities. Both types of risks are initiated by several economic and project assumptions, which can alter between the decision point and the project phases. These assumptions are capital investment (for construction-typed projects), prices of products

and feedstock, production costs, controlling rules and regulations imposed by the authorities (both shortterm and long-term ones), selective technologies, and key skilled personnel. These project risks are unavoidable. Once becoming real, they can significantly impact the Group through project delays, cost overruns, project returns on investment, or economic viability. They can trigger further operation risks, including environmental impact, occupational health, project design, project licensing delays, equipment and machinery procurement, construction, post-commissioning execution, feedstock supply, market, suply chain, and logistics risks.

Mitigation Approach : Recognizing project risks, the Company fully integrates systematic risk management with the project and manages it under the given policy and operating framework defined by RMC. Assigned project managers must conform to the Company’s risk management policy and standard operating procedures, including project risk identification, severity and likelihood risk assessments, formulation and implementation of risk mitigation plans, and constant review and reporting of risk reports. This will lower the likelihood of risk occurrence while enhancing risk mitigation efficiency, meaning reducing opportunity losses and damage control and hence increasing opportunities for the Group to achieve long-term business goals. Securing full international-standard insurance coverage for all projects under construction is the Company’s strict policy in minimizing risk severity, even if a given risk was to materialize.

Human Resource Risks Human resource risks, without proper management, can severely and significantly impact the Company’s operating and financial performance. The Group’s vision is to move and invest further in a more value-added and value-chained downstream, producing more environmentally friendly chemical products and High Volume Specialties (HVS) in domestic and international markets. To accomplish this vision, the Group requires production technologies, plant operation, business plans, production processes, and production extensions beyond the current production lines, researching and developing innovative technologies and advanced operating processes - all these possibilities demand different human interfaces. Existing personnel may lack operating skills and work experience, or may possess inadequate skills and capability at internationally acceptable standards. Meanwhile, the Company may not be able to acquire qualified personnel either in or outside the organization, or to retain valuable human assets within the Company, the Group, or acquired companies.

Mitigation Approach : PTT Global Chemical fully recognizes human resource risks very early in the process, during the feasibility study period, long before the business plan and project execution. Preparation of skilled and experienced personnel suitable for specific tasks and assignments of each project is essential from day one. It has therefore put in place a clear strategic direction and subsequent operating plan specifically for managing and developing human resources in line with the Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall business strategy and other objectives, both short-term and long-term. These strategy and plan lower the human resource risks level down to a certain extent.

Internal Controls System PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited values a sound internal control system, which gives its business processes accuracy, transparency, and accountability, while lessening or preventing potential risks. The Board of Directors at its meeting No. 1/2011 on 19 October 2011, appointed an Audit Committee, consisting of three Independent Directors. The Board assigned the Committee to review its internal controls to ensure efficiency, adequacy, and suitability for business. This year the Board held four meetings, each time with the Audit Committee in attendance to give opinions concerning the internal controls. The Committee tabled its assessment findings on internal controls to the Board at its meeting No. 2/2012 on 17 February 2012. The Board concurred with the Committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s view on internal controls, as described by component below: 1. Control Environment PTTGC strives to become a leader in the chemical business for a better quality of life by clearly defining its vision, missions, and values to serve as its operating framework and provide business directions. In addition, it defined a policy for good corporate governance so that the Board, the Executives, and the employees may apply the core corporate governance principles namely, creation of long-term value, responsibilities, equitable treatment, accountabilities, transparency, and ethics to their business conduct and lead the organization toward sustainable growth. The Board and Executives also provided role models for conformance to the corporate governance policy and the business code of conduct for PTT Global Chemical Group while promoting the culture of corporate governance and responsibility to stakeholders.

PTTGC has instituted a suitable organization structure and lines of command with clear delegation of duties and responsibilities, while formulating corporate strategies and defining its clear directions, objectives, goals, and performance indicators, together with constant reviews and adjustment to suit prevailing circumstances. Finally, the policy and business procedures have been defined in writing, including those for financial and procurement transactions.

2. Risk Assessment PTTGC values risk management, as seen in its appointment of a Risk Management Committee to devise a policy and recommend approaches for key risk management for its business in a suitable and efficient manner. It also has in place a Corporate Risk Management Department responsible for risk management inspection and oversight. In place are assessments of risks affecting PTTGC’s business and its achievement of strategic objectives under the criteria stated in PTTGC’s risk management handbook, definition of a mitigation plan to prevent or lower the risks to manageable levels, and mechanisms for the management to monitor implementation under risk management and action plans every month.

Besides, PTTGC appointed a risk management team consisting of senior executives assigned to monitor and oversee key risks by strategizing financial risk management in line with the policy devised by the Risk Management Committee, including those dealing with marketing and sales, and financial risks to ensure that management of risks resulting from these elements may be conducted efficiently in line with business plans.

3. Control Activities The Board appointed four Sub-Committees, namely the Audit Committee, Corporate Governance Committee, Risk Management Committee, and Nomination and Remuneration Committee, to provide oversight of PTTGC’s business and make sure it is up to standard and align with proper approaches under corporate governance principles. PTTGC defined the structure of the Board and the Audit Committee such that they are free from interference by the management in overseeing and monitoring the management’s performance to ensure alignment with the defined policy and goals, and such that credible financial reporting and appropriate disclosure of connected transactions are in place. Also, they ensure that Internal Audit Department works independently and reports directly to the Board, scrutinizes the performance of other departments, and provides recommendations to ensure adequately effective internal controls.

PTTGC stresses business process management that is efficient and unified, with clearly defined policies and procedures for accounting and finance, procurement, control and administration of properties and warehouses, quality/safety/environmental management, and other regulations in line with business growth. Regulations are in place for approval authority and due actions taken, as is segregation of duties to prevent frauds. Also in place are regular reviews of execution by Executives, and monitoring of performance against corporate and performance indicators in relation to goals. Finally, in place is a process to control information processing that is timely, transparent, and reliable in support of accurate and timely business execution.

4. Information and Communication PTTGC values information and communication by putting in place an information system for business execution, financial reporting and execution, policies and protocols for the control and operation of business activities, and external information. PTTGC communicates with Executives and internal users in formats conducive to efficient and effective application in support of their responsibilities. Finally, it boasts plans for unifying the IT systems for both former companies (PTT Chemical Plc. and PTT Aromatics and Refining Plc.) to manage PTTGCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s key information and render greater efficiency and effectiveness of internal controls.

5. Monitoring PTTGC commands a monitoring process for senior management to ensure adequate effectiveness of internal controls in support of business goal achievement. Ongoing monitoring activities include monitoring of strategic plan implementation in monthly Balanced Scorecard monitoring meetings, weekly meetings of Senior Executives, internal monitoring of action plans, and monitoring of subsidiaries’ businesses. Separate evaluations include internal audit, QSHE management assessment, and external audit. These are periodically reported to the Board for consideration and monitoring of the management’s performance against Company’s goals. Performance audit under this year’s audit plans has identified no conflicts of interest, frauds, irregularities, or significant flaws in PTTGC’s internal control system. No violation was found of Securities Exchange laws, SET’s regulations, or laws related to Company business.

Needs and Justification of Connected Transaction For the sales of products by the Company to connected parties have been carried out mainly so that they may process its products into their own for sale at prices corresponding to long-term off-take agreements or spot prices. Prices must prove mutually beneficial and based on market prices without any undue transfer of interests or extraordinary items. When providing services to connected parties, transactions must cover transportation or storage costs of products. The charges for services are both market-based and benefit-based without any undue transfer of interests or extraordinary items. For the product and feedstock supply and/or services as well as the volume of products, feedstock or services given by connected parties must meet the needs and business operation of the Company. Prices of products trading or services are as agreed by the Company and connected parties without any undue transfer of interests or extraordinary items. In addition, the Company is required to purchase feedstock from connected parties because the capacity and quality of such feedstock meet its needs. The Company also saves on transportation expenses since the feedstock can be transferred safely by the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pipeline systems from their plants in Map Ta Phut Industrial Estate, Rayong.

Measures and Procedure for Approval of Connected Transaction The Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Articles of Association stated that a Director can acquire or dispose of company assets or perform any business transaction involving the Company either by himself or herself or on behalf of others only with the approval from the Board of Director. Any Director who personally gains from any acquisition or disposal of company asset or any transaction of the Company is not allowed to vote on that matter. After receiving approval from the Board of Directors the Company can perform any business transaction or acquire or dispose of major assets in line with the announcement of the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET). This also applies to the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s subsidiaries in the SET announcement concerning connected transaction of listed companies as well as the buying and selling of registered company assets.

109

Opinion of Independent Directors The Independent Directors agreed with the Board of Directors.

Policies and Trends of Future Connected Transactions Future connected transactions between the Company and connected parties will remain normal and unexceptional without any transfer of interest. For the pricing policy between the company and connected parties, the price of products or feedstock purchased will be set in agreement and or linked to market prices. In addition, service charges paid to connected parties will also be at armâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s length. The price of product sold or purchased between the Company and connected parties will, as a rule, be linked to Map Ta Phut Market prices. Disclosure of the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s connected transaction is to comply with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET). The audit standards for connected parties will be as specified by the Federation of Accounting Professions and Office of the Auditor General.

Composition of the Board According to PTTGC’s regulations, the Board consists of at least five but no more than 15 Directors, with a minimum of three Independent Directors, who must account for one-third of the composition of the Board, elected and removed at Annual General Shareholders’ Meetings. At least half of the Directors must reside in the Kingdom and all Directors must be qualified by law and PTTGC’s regulations. Independent Directors must be qualified by the SET Law and Directors must not exceed 70 years of age. (A list of names and resumes of the Board appears on Attachment 1 - Details on the Company’s executives and supervisors). Appointment and Termination PTTGC’s regulations on the appointment and termination of Directors are summarized as follows : Appointment • The Annual General Shareholders’ Meetings are to elect Directors under the following criteria : (1) Each shareholder has one vote per held share. (2) If the number of nominees does not exceed the number of Directors required in the election, the shareholders’ meetings elect the nominees. In voting, the nominees are to receive the number of votes according to the number of shares each shareholder holds as under (1). Each shareholder cannot allocate only part of the votes to any nominees. (3) If the number of nominees exceeds the number of Directors required in the election, a shareholder is to individually cast the vote for the nominees. In voting, the nominees are to receive the number of votes according to the number of shares each shareholder holds as under (1). Each shareholder cannot allocate only part of the votes to any nominees. The nominees are to be ranked by the total number of votes received and those with the most votes are elected as Directors, but the number can only be equal to that of the Directors required. If more nominees receive equal votes than the number of Directors required, the Chairman of the meeting must cast a deciding vote. • The Board of Directors is to appoint anyone among themselves as Chairman, who must cast a deciding vote if there are an equal number of votes among the Directors. The Directors are also to appoint another one among themselves as Vice Chairman, who acts on behalf of the Chairman in case the Chairman is unable to perform his duty or if the Chairman’s position becomes vacant.

134

• If vacancies of the Director exist for reasons other than term expiration, the Board of Directors is to elect a qualified person to become Director at the following Board meeting. If the remaining term of directorship is less than two months, the newly elected Director replacing the former Director is to stay in his/her duty for the remaining term of the former Director. The resolution of the Board on this matter must consist of no less than three-quarters of the votes of the remaining Directors. • If the vacancies on the Board are less than its quorum, the only duty that the remaining Directors can perform, on behalf of the Board, is to call for a shareholders’ meeting to elect Directors to fill the vacancies. The meeting is to be held within one month after the vacancies of the Board are less than the quorum. Each newly elected Director replacing the former Director is to stay in his/her duty for the remaining term of the former Director. Termination • At every Annual General Meeting (AGM), one-third of the Directors must retire. If this number is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to one-third must retire. The names of the Directors to retire during the first and second year after the Company was listed are to be drawn by lots. For subsequent years, those with the longest terms must retire. However, a Director whose term in the office expires can be re-elected. • Apart from normal term expiration, directorship is to be considered terminated for reasons of death, resignation, disqualification, or disqualified by law of the shareholders’ resolutions to remove a Director, or a court order for removal. • Any Director may resign by submitting a resignation letter to the Company. Such resignation will take effect on the date the Company receives the letter. The Director may also inform the registrar about the resignation. • At shareholders’ meetings, shareholders may vote for the removal of any Director from office before the term expiration. At least, three-quarter votes of eligible shareholders present at the meeting are required, provided that the number of shares represented by the three-quarter votes is at least half of the total number of shares represented by the eligible shareholders present at the meeting.

Organization and People Management An exposure to higher competition, unpredictable volatility and dynamic changes has compelled PTT Global Chemical to draw and implement long-term growth strategies, which embrace both organic and inorganic growth. During the last years, we have focused on strengthening our existing production and manufacturing platforms in parallel with adding product lines for vertical integration and expanding business internationally through setting up representative offices and entering into joint ventures or mergers with international business partners. With such aggressive paces, good organization and people management therefore is remarkably valued as a significant complement to the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success. PTTGC has devised new approaches and processes in addition to refining existing elements for greater efficiency to respond to greater business needs. In the past year, PTTGC is on the way of integration and fine-tuning after the amalgamation of PTT Aromatics and Refining Public Company Limited (PTTAR) and PTT Chemical Public Company Limited (PTTCH). As far as organization and people management is concerned, PTTGC has redesigned its organization structure to suit its future business strategies and outlooks, new business model, supply chain patterns, and concepts of governance mechanism - that is, centralization and decentralization of power. The new organization structure features three core groups of functions. The Corporate Center devises policies, lays down systems, oversees business performance, and keeps monitoring and periodical assessment to ensure that corporate-wide management is uniformly based. The center also supports pooling resources through shared services approach. As for business execution, the Group Performance Center (GPC) produces upstream feedstock for PTTGCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s various business units, with reliability as a key. On the other hand, business units, interfacing more closely with customers and consumers, focus on management and profit generation from product manufacturing and sale. The new organizational design encourages decentralization of management and decision-making power in areas of strategy and business plan formulation, performance and bottom-line management, and people and their development, in addition to fostering awareness of responsibility for value addition for the organization and supporting business expansion. For accuracy and transparency, checks and balances govern the Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supervision.

161

Besides the organization structure, we as well focus on benefit harmonization to launch a new standardized scheme of compensation, welfare, and benefits which should not only be on a par with industry peers and competitive with the market, but also create the maximum benefits to employees and the Company. Also vital to post-amalgamation PTTGC is the cultivation of a single culture and values. After all, during this transition the organization faces critical changes across the board, so all PTTGC personnel must unite and drive it toward success. To this end, PTTGC has defined GC SPIRIT as its culture and values, patterned after not only PTTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture and values, but also its own commitment to becoming a global player as PTTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s petrochemical flagship with a focus on development and manufacturing of products needed by the market and value addition.

GC SPIRIT These initial actions taken during this transition period will be built on, whether in term of organizational development, which still focuses on change management and efficient communication to nurture understanding and penetrate target groups, or in term of people management, by which the main mission here is to groom our workforce for business needs through the development of leadership skills, capability, competency development, and putting the right person on the right job. Workforce preparation also implies recruitment to fill gaps, as well as managing and upgrading high-flying staff in addition to strengthening employee engagement. Organization and people management is always a challenge. Nevertheless, to make the leap and keep pace with business side, it is our commitment to make all activities happened through systematical and continuous execution and implementation.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;With intention to promote operational efficiency within the framework of international standard practice of good corporate governance and excellent management and also to conduct business with responsibility, ethics, fairness, transparency and accountability, with a clear focus on the creation of utmost benefits for the shareholders and stakeholders, towards mutual trust and sustainable growth.â&#x20AC;?

Corporate Governance

in compliance with International Standard

164

Good Corporate Governance PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited (PTTGC) resulted from the amalgamation of PTT Chemical Public Company Limited (PTTCH) and PTT Aromatics and Refining Public Company Limited (PTTAR) on 19 October 2011. Since its establishment, the Board of Directors have always valued good corporate governance principles, recognizing that good corporate governance not only creates trust in PTTGC’s business among shareholders, investors, financial institutions, customers, business partners, and other stakeholders, but is a pillar that supports sustainable business growth. Adherence to good corporate governance will bring about long-term value for shareholders, social development, and accountability for stakeholders, which will further position the Company as PTT Group’s Chemical Flagship, Thailand’s largest and integrated petrochemical and refining business, and ASEAN’s leading business entity in size and product diversification. Driven by such strong will, the Board set up a Corporate Governance Committee. Chaired by an Independent Director, the Corporate Governance Committee is tasked with the formulation of policies regarding corporate governance business code of conduct, and making them widely known with guidelines for implementation. The Committee also oversees, gives advice, evaluates, and reviews policies and practices in order to bring PTTGC’s corporate governance to international standards. Initially, the Committee’s duties involve formulation of policies and guidelines that both companies always complied with until they were widely recognized and awarded for their excellent corporate governance. To have guidelines of the most stringent standards for both the management and employee to follow, the Board published the ‘PTT Global Chemical Group’s Corporate Governance Policy’ signed by Chairman of the Board, and announces company-wide implementation. This will result in PTTGC and its affiliates (“PTT Global Chemical Group”) becoming an efficient entity in business management and corporate governance. PTT Global Chemical Group should be recognized as an organization conducting its business with ethics, fairness, transparency, and accountability. The Company is determined to create the maximum benefits for shareholders while having concerns for stakeholders to create mutual trust to move forward together with sustainability. The Company, moreover, produces ‘Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook’, a reference of corporate governance principles and implementation guidelines. The document equips the management and employee with awareness and understanding of good corporate governance, which is underscored by the principles of Creation of long-term value, Responsibility, Equitable treatment, Accountability, Transparency, and Ethics, or C R E A T E. The management and employee must strictly adhere to these principles, as well as laws and regulations in every country where it invests. The document also conveys the good corporate governance

165

policy to the Board, the management, and staff. It can also assure stakeholders with greater confidence in PTTGC’s business conduct. The handbook was officially announced in February 2012. The Board, the management, and employee gave their signatures to show acceptance of the corporate governance principles as their mission. The contents of the handbook were also posted on the intranet for employee and other interested on the Company’s website at www.pttgcgroup.com.

Compliance with the Good Corporate Governance Principle PTTGC is committed to good corporate governance principles and conforms to the Stock Exchange of Thailand’s (SET’s) good corporate governance principles for listed companies. The five core principles are: 1. The Rights of Shareholders PTTGC recognizes the rights of shareholders, thereby introducing a framework to ensure that shareholders’ basic rights are fully protected. Investor Relations, Corporate Secretary work in coordination to promote shareholders’ equal rights. 1.1 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) PTTGC is to organize the AGM by holding on to SEC regulations on corporate governance as well as corporate governance standards, both in terms of shareholders’ rights and equitable treatment.

Before the Meeting Date PTTGC makes some pre-arrangements for holding the 2012 AGM, the first shareholders’ meeting following the amalgamation. It recognizes the usual practices of both companies which had received excellent ratings from the assessment based on the AGM Checklist. PTTGC is determined to hold a better meeting by welcoming suggestions and recommendations from shareholders for consideration. Preparation for the 2012 AGM was also included in the agenda of Corporate Governance Committee’s 2012 meeting.

Preparations include notification to shareholders about the Board’s agreement on the AGM date, dividend payment, record of meeting attendance and dividend payment dates, and closing date of the registry book to suspend share transfer. The invitation to AGM is sent along with other necessary documents using SET’s information disclosure system as required. The invitation, proxy note, and other documents, in both Thai and English, are also posted on PTTGC’s website 30 days before the meeting date.

166

The invitation to the meeting contains all details required, i.e. the meeting date, time, and venue; meeting agenda attached with the Boards’ opinions; including information to facilitate the consideration of each item on the meeting agenda; PTTGC’s annual report, all types of proxy note (type A, B, and C) as required by the Ministry of Commerce. These documents will be of use if any shareholder is not able to attend the meeting. In such case, the shareholder can appoint an Independent Director or any other person as proxy, who is also allowed for proxy votes. The Company arranges mailing of the invitation note 21 days ahead of the meeting date, which is earlier than the legal requirement of at least 14 days to allow enough time for shareholders to peruse the documents.

On the Meeting Date On the day of the 2012 AGM, the meeting venue, meeting process, registration and officers will be prepared, to facilitate and speed up the registration process. Registration is allowed through the bar-code system two hours ahead of the meeting. Computer sets, in a sufficient number, are also available at all meeting rooms to ensure correct and fast registration. Shareholders are still allowed to register for the meeting even after the meeting starts so that they can maintain their rights for voting on the agendas that they have not yet exercised their rights. An emergency response plan is also in place to ensure safety and security.

The Board and each member of all Committees value each shareholders’ meeting. Executives, auditors, and legal advisers consider it their duty to attend the shareholders’ meeting to answer questions and clarify legal queries. The Chairman of the Board, who chairs the AGM, announces meeting regulations as required by law and Company regulations, e.g. opening of the meeting, voting, and vote counting for each item of the agenda. The Chairman of the meeting allows shareholders to ask questions and express their opinions freely. The Chairperson of each Sub-Committee answers questions clearly with adequate information in his/her respective areas. To ensure transparency, legal advisers and volunteers from shareholders are invited to witness every vote counting. Collection of ballots is carried out under SEC’s regulations. To show respect for shareholders’ rights, any addition or change on the agenda, or change of significant information in the meeting, is forbidden. The Chairman allows ample time for the meeting and conducts the meeting in an appropriate and transparent manner with respect to the meeting agenda earlier announced in the meeting invitation.

167

After the Meeting Date PTTGC is determined to maintain AGM standards with strict conformance to regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Thai Investors Association. It ensures that shareholders receive the minutes of the meeting, with accurate and adequate information, in a timely manner. It submits the minutes to SET within 14 days after the meeting. The minutes will also be posted on the Company’s website to allow shareholders and other interested parties to access information about the Company. The proceeding at the meeting will also be recorded in a VCD format, and interested parties are welcomed to obtain a copy. The 2011 AGMs of PTTCH and PTTAR are assessed, and shareholders were satisfied with their arrangements, giving an over 90% rating.

1.2 Access to Information PTTGC treats its shareholders better than what is required by law by providing them with updated information. Reports and analyses made by the management can also be accessed through various channels, e.g. SET’s news reporting system and the Company’s website, in both Thai and English, to ensure shareholders access to information. Information that is not required for disclosure by law but that the Company considers should be disclosed for the benefit of shareholders will be posted on the Company’s website or made known through SET’s news reporting system, as seen appropriate. PTTGC also allows shareholders to ask for information or pose their questions through Corporate Governance Secretary at cg@pttgcgroup.com, as well as Investor Relations at ir@pttgcgroup.com. 2. Equitable Treatment of Shareholders PTTGC is determined to treat all shareholders equally, major or minor shareholders, or institution or foreign investors. The following tools support its equitable treatment of shareholders: •

Structure of Good Corporate Governance and Scope of Work PTTGC establishes the structure of the Good Corporate Governance, which details elements, qualifications, appointment, roles and responsibilities, holding of directorship, and performance of Directors, and employees at both managerial and operating levels. It also formulates policies and regulations as well as an operating manual in a clear written form to allow checks and balances. PTTGC’s Internal Audit Department examines the business performance to ensure that its business proceeds in the direction earlier agreed upon and conforms to the laws and regulations involved, and can attain its goal efficiently. In doing so, the Internal Audit Department must follow the charter approved by the Audit Committee.

Permission for Shareholders to Propose AGM Agenda, Director Nominees, and Questions in Advance PTTGC allows shareholders to propose meeting agendas and nominees for Directors, and pose questions before the AGM date, under the Board’s regulations. Qualified shareholders can send their proposed agendas through fax, e-mail, or the Company’s website, and are required to forward the signed original copies together with supporting documents via regular mail to the Corporate Secretarial Department. Information concerning such practice is posted on PTTGC’s website and disseminated through SET’s news reporting system to demonstrate the Company’s equitable treatment of all shareholders. Candidate names and meeting agendas proposed by shareholders will receive consideration under PTTGC’s criteria. The Board will carefully screen the meeting agenda to come up with items that only truly benefit the Company. Meanwhile, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee will be responsible for screening the proposed candidate names before submission for the Board of Director’s consideration. The Chairman of the Board will announce the outcomes of the consideration with the rationales behind the decisions to shareholders at the meeting.

At Board Meeting No.4/2554, held on 26 December 2011, the Board approved the criteria and guidelines for determining the number of shares held by a given person to qualify for proposing meeting agendas and nominating directors. The shareholding volume must be no less than 0.5%, and the holder must have held such shares for one full year. Such shareholding must still be valid until the closing date of the registry book to maintain the holder’s right to participate in the meeting. This is to open the door for shareholders who have continued interest in PTTGC’s business.

In 2012, PTTGC allows shareholders to propose their meeting agendas from 26 December 2011 until 31 January 2012 as a result of the amalgamation, completed on 19 October 2011. In the following year, three months before the meeting date will be allowed according to best practices. And only for 2012, the Company is foregoing the condition regarding one-year shareholding for shareholders who would like to propose their meeting agendas, also as a result of the amalgamation.

•

Suggestions and Questions from Shareholders to the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee Shareholders are welcome to raise their suggestions and recommendations to the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee through the Company’s website. The Company Secretary will collect and submit them to Chairman for consideration. If such suggestions,

169

recommendations, or questions are considered beneficial for PTTGC’s business or are of interest to most stakeholders or PTTGC’s performance, he/she will raise them at the Board’s meeting. •

Shareholder Relations As part of good corporate governance, PTTGC plans to arrange visits to operating plants for shareholders to ensure their confidence, while providing knowledge and understanding of operations, management, and PTTGC’s care for society, the community, and the environment. The visits will also strengthen relationships between the Company’s management and shareholders. PTTGC will let shareholders learn about the planned visits and will assess their satisfaction for further improvement.

• Control of the Use of Inside Information among Members of the Board and the Management The Board has instituted a set of rules that govern the disclosure of information and prevention of insider trading or any act that may cause conflicts of interest among people involved, i.e. Directors, Executives, and employees working in related areas as well as their spouses and children under the lawful age. Policies, code of conduct for Directors and employees, and business conduct were set up in conformity as follows: 1. Directors and employees are not allowed to exploit inside information and must keep such information in confidence. This rule is incorporated in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook and communicated to Directors, the Executives and employees for acknowledgment and practice. 2. Sales and purchase of shares by exploiting inside information is prohibited to prevent insider trading, which may bring about personal benefits or benefits for related persons, and to prevent employees from wrong-doing. In this regard, equitable treatment of shareholders and investors is taken into account. 3. Sales and purchases of shares by Directors, the Executives, and employees whose work involves financial information is prohibited for 45 days before the disclosure of PTTGC’s quarterly financial statements and 60 days for annual financial statements. Their transactions can resume 24 hours after the disclosure of such information to SET to ensure equal access to information. PTTGC will send out notifications to Directors and the Executives beforehand. 4. Directors and Executives, as defined by SEC, are responsible for notifying PTTGC by filing reports on sales-purchases-transfers-acquisitions of shares within 3 working days after any change in their portfolios. The Board assigns the Company Secretary to collect all reports and incorporate them into the meeting agenda of all the Board’ meetings.

170

• Prevention of Conflicts of Interest The Board draws up policies and business code of conduct and takes the following actions: 1. PTTGC has strictly followed the regulations of SET and SEC and those of the Capital Market Supervisory Board. Directors or Executives with potential vested interests in transactions or meeting agendas with potential conflicts of interest will not attend such meetings. If their presence at the meeting is required to provide necessary information, they will not be allowed to vote or to give any opinion on such items. The Company Secretary or the Secretary of the Sub-Committee involved will take note of any involvement of a Director or Executives and incorporate such information in the minutes of the meeting. 2. The Board has included the rules about conflicts of interest in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook, which Directors, Executives, and Employees are required to follow. By using the Company’s report form to show their transparency and to prevent any unintentional cause of conflict of interest, all personnel are required to report any matter with potential conflicts of interest. 3. Responsibilities to Stakeholders PTTGC has always been committed to taking responsibility for all stakeholders with respect for others’ rights and stakeholders’ satisfaction to accomplish sustainable co-existence. The Board’s mechanism assures that all stakeholders are protected and that they are equally treated, be they shareholders, employees, customers, business partners, creditors, the government, business competitors, communities, society, or the environment. PTTGC’s policies and treatment for each group of stakeholders are as follows: • Shareholders Policy : Shareholders are encouraged to exercise their basic rights. PTT Global Chemical aims to create utmost satisfaction for the shareholders while taking into consideration the sustainable growth of the Company, the creation of added value and the continued provision of appropriate returns, as well as the good corporate governance principles. In addition to ensuring shareholders’ basic rights as stated by the law, the Company’s Articles of Association, and the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook,

171

such as the right to attend shareholders’ meetings and cast their votes, the right to freely express their opinions, the right to check the number of shares, and the right to receive fair returns from the Company, PTTGC has drawn up a good corporate governance work plan to upgrade its CG to international standards. This is in line with its commitment to attaining regional and global business goals, which focuses upon creating satisfaction and added value that benefit both domestic and foreign shareholders directly.

• Customers Policy : Devote to customers and members of the general public satisfaction and confidence in the quality products and services at appropriate price levels. Consistently upgrade standards and maintain a positive and lasting relationship.

To ensure maximum benefit from PTTGC’s products, in terms of quality and price, while developing relationships with customers, it established a special department to take care of customers. Customers are welcome to raise their recommendations about products, give advice on problem-solving, and file complaints. This is to ensure the Company’s attempt to best serve customers with products and services that are of the right quality, fair prices, and punctuality. Customer engagements and visits are arranged to listen to customers’ opinions and clarify customers’ queries for maximum benefit of all parties. PTTGC, moreover, does not collude with competitors to gain benefits which may cause unfairness to customers. It will only comply with contracts, business code of conduct, and laws and regulations strictly. It also conducts customer satisfaction surveys for all products and services every year to cross-check their satisfaction for further product and service development.

This year, PTTGC organized a customer engagement session on 26 November 2011 to welcome customers and business partners from all business sectors and strengthen relationships with them. • Business Partners Policy : Take into account equality and honesty in the conduct of business. Protect the interests in collaboration with the business partners by observing the laws and the rules agreed upon with them, and by conducting ethical business.

PTTGC follows an honest free-trade framework strictly in contracts and business code of conduct with business partners, equality, and fairness, and expects all business partners to do the same. It always includes a clause regarding conflicts of interest in business contracts, which value inspection and transparency in hiring contractors. It also prohibits the Executives and employees from having

172

influence or incentives, or giving, or receiving any benefits which are against the good corporate governance principles. PTTGC issued a policy and clear guidelines on dealing with business partners. Employees must treat business partners honestly and strictly follow any obligations between each other. Business partners must be notified of any problems in advance to jointly find sensible solutions. Guidelines are in place to oversee the receipt and provision of any goods or benefits from parties with interests in the Company’s business to prevent employees from inappropriate behavior. Business partners are expected to observe regulations concerning safety, occupational health, and the environment to ensure smooth relationships. The quality of life and well-being of the community, society, and the environment must also be respected by both sides.

• Business Competitors Policy : Treat competitors as per the international principles within the framework of the laws on trade competition and fair competition.

PTTGC follows free-trade principles and promote free trading. It abides by fair trading while observing business code of conduct and laws. It does not seek competitors’ confidential information through dishonest means, does not discredit them through accusations or slanders, and does not attack competitors groundlessly. The Company’s personnel must refrain from any act that may harm business competitors.

• Creditors Policy : Observe the practical guideline and the conditions in fairness to the creditors, and repay debt on time.

PTTGC strictly follows obligations with creditors and financial institutions, and performs its duties as required by conditions in agreements. It does not hide any facts which could prove harmful to creditors. If it cannot fulfill contracts, it will inform creditors beforehand to jointly find solutions. In addition, PTTGC organizes activities that foster good relationships with creditors and joins creditors in running suitable social activities.

173

• Public Sector Policy : Recognize the significance of the public sector which is one of the stakeholders of PTT Global Chemical Group. A guideline has been established for the treatment of the public sector in the countries in which PTT Global Chemical Group invest in order to avoid negative consequence from any action.

PTTGC conducts its business under the supervision of government agencies involved both in Thailand and in countries where it invests, realizing that governmental support is needed for smooth operations and thus ensures compliance with policies, laws and regulations. In relationships, PTTGC regularly exchanges information with the government to foster ties within proper, transparent limits. It takes part in various activities and lends support to various projects organized by the government sector, such as the recent ‘Ruam Phalang Thai Chuai Phai Nam Thuam’ project (Calling for Thais to Join Forces in Flood Relief Project) organized by the Office of the Prime Minister.

• Employees Policy : Develop our organization into one of learning. Foster a culture and an ambiance of teamwork. Pay fair compensation. Ensure safe work environment. Recognize the significance of development and knowledge transfer. Listen to opinions and suggestions of employees at all levels in an equitable manner. Foster and enhance cultural organization with the awareness that all employees are a crucial factor of sustainable success, advancement and growth of PTT Global Chemical Group.

Employee recruitment and allocation are carried out with due regard for each person’s educational qualifications, experience, and ability to place him/her on the right job. PTTGC encourages continuous employees development. Employees are allowed to appropriately unleash their potential through performing their duties and responsibilities. Job opportunities are opened for all without discrimination against gender, age, religion, and physical disability. PTTGC also abides by international human rights with respect for others, while preventing harassment. A Welfare Committee comprising representatives from the management and employees has been set up to ensure that employees welfare is adequate and secure for employees and their families’ living. PTTGC provides a safe workplace for employees while organizing various activities to provide knowledge about safety, in theory and practice, to employees and contractors to ensure their preparedness to deal with emergencies, such as fire drills at PTTGC’s high-rise head office and emergency drills at operating plants.

174

At PTTGC, Good Corporate Governance Communication Plans are communicated to ensure that the Executives and employees of PTTGC Group possess due awareness and can apply such principles to their daily work life and personal life. PTTGC takes care of all stakeholders. It values human rights, the environment and the sensible use of natural resources, and international standards. The Company has drawn up its PTTGC Core Values, known as GC-SPIRIT, to guide its business conduct. GC-SPIRIT also drives good corporate governance, as the “I” in the acronym stands for Integrity & Ethics. Even though the two former companies have now become one, the new entity still high values talent and virtue. Good corporate governance will be further driven by the ‘Good’ and ‘Great’ of employees who ‘value’ and ‘pursue’ the Good Corporate Governance Handbook, which will bring the Company’s corporate governance up to international standards sustainably and securely.

In addition, PTTGC recognizes the need to keep employees at all corners of the organization informed of all business developments. Employees can express their suggestions direct to the Executives, such as through the “Management Site Visit” activity, which is a type of employees engagement designed for discussion between the Executives and employees. The Executives will also give encouragement to operating employees at sites and head office. Many other activities are held to ensure the understanding of and familiarity between the Executives and employees.

• Communities, Society and Environment Policy : Conduct the business on the basis of responsibility to communities, society and environment, in terms of safety, quality of life and preservation of natural resources. Must promote the efficient use of energy, recognize the significance of the quality of life of communities surrounding the plants and society at the national level. A proportion of the profit shall be allocated to help build communities and society. The conduct of business should take into account impact on the environment from the stage of plant construction, the selection of production technology to the handling of waste, as well as the research and development of innovations to increase energy usage efficiency.

PTTGC has always been careful not to create impacts on the community, society, and the environment. At all operating plants, it supports activities that upgrade the quality of life and provide benefit to the community, society, and the environment. Social responsibility is part of PTTGC’s “GC-SPIRIT” Core Values, in which ‘R’ stands for Responsibility for Society. Social contribution plans are drawn up under the Company’s strategies, social development plan,

175

and investment plans for sustainability in order to minimize impacts on the surrounding communities, particularly in safety, health, and education areas. The Company devised a plan for sustainable development based on the international ISO 26000 standards, follows up and even improves it to align with the business plans. It encourages employees and stakeholders to act as good citizens and encourages them to join activities with operating sites’ communities or in activities organized by stakeholders. Employees’s volunteering spirit is made part of their annual performance appraisal. Even in a crisis, PTTGC’s programs for the community and society still proceed. The Company even exploits more of its internal knowledge and capability to increase those projects’ effectiveness for the maximum benefit of communities and society. During the flooding disaster in late 2011, for example, volunteer employees joined PTT Group in disaster relief programs, the opening of rehabilitation centers in affected provinces, and the establishment of the Boran Kaan Kaeng Club for social contribution activities, giving assistance to flood-affected people in both cash and thing.

4. Disclosure of Information and Transparency The Board recognizes that disclosure of information should be done in a transparent, accurate, complete, equitable, reliable, and timely manner through reliable channels with easy access. A policy is laid down for disclosure of information, both financial and non-financial. Such information, be it positive or negative, must be composed carefully, clearly, correctly, transparently, regularly, and can be examined to ensure that shareholders and stakeholders can receive equal information, as required by law as well as the regulations of the Company and related government agencies. 4.1 Quality of Information PTTGC’s information disclosed to shareholders, investors, and the public must be timely, reliable, complete, and accurate as required by laws and regulations. Public disclosure of Company information, both financial and non-financial information, involves:

1. Financial and non-financial information as required by SEC and SET PTTGC’s financial statements are prepared accurately and completely according to accounting standards. They are audited by the external auditor and the Audit Committee. The accurate, complete, and timely audit process is based on SEC and SET regulations and corporate governance principles. Since the amalgamation on 19 October 2011, none of PTTGC’s acts relating to disclosure of information have been found in disagreement with SET regulations.

176

2. Information about Directors and its disclosure Directors, Executives, and their connected persons related to the business execution of PTTGC or affiliates under SET regulations file reports as required by law and other reports by their own accord and fiduciary duties with care and completeness. This is meant to ensure that they do not have vested interests in decision-making. These reports are vested-interest reports of Directors, the Executives, and connected persons, reports on shareholding and changes in shareholding and acknowledgment of their duties related to shareholding, reports on internal control and audit as well as risk management, the charter of each Sub-Committee, certification of independence of Independent Directors, reports from Independent Directors on each Sub-Committee, and corporate governance reports. 3. Business performance reports PTTGC discloses information in addition to information technology as required by SEC and SET regulations. This is to allow shareholders and the public to learn about its development, such as major investment projects, business movements, as well as CSR and SHE projects. 4.2 Disclosure Channels PTTGC discloses its information, as or more than required through the channels below: • Disclosure through SET Community Portal and the Company’s website, in both Thai and English. The website is regularly updated and readily provided with web pages to access a particular PTTGC department. • External communication, e.g. launch of projects, Executive interviews, propagation of the Company’s vision, strategies, and goals, as well as business results must be complete and accurate according to information disclosure practice, and expression of ideas to outsiders as guided by the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook. • Internal communication, another type of communication that the Company considers important. Company information is passed on to employees through various channels of internal communication, including the e-mail, intranet, internal newsletter, notice board, and exhibition to keep staff updated with PTTGC’s movement, particularly strategies, directions, and policies. PTTGC has guidelines on the use of information internally and on confidentiality of information which business and employees must strictly comply with.

177

4.3 Information Disclosure Channels and responsible parties 1. Investor Relations An Investor Relations department has been instituted to take responsibility or disclosure of information to investors by providing information and convenience to access information to ensure that information reaching investors is accurate, complete, and timely.

This year a number of activities were organized by Investor Relations. However, after the amalgamation, PTTGC arranged for its Executives to provide information on various occasions, e.g. meetings and road shows with domestic and international investors, meetings with financial analysts, telephone conferences with Executives, meetings with Executives at the office, disclosure of information through SET and the Company’s website, conversations through telephone and e-mail, and newsletters to shareholders. PTTGC also launched a webpage dedicated to Investor Relations, which provides general information for shareholders/investors and financial information to better facilitate access to information. An ir@pttgcgroup.com e-mail address was also launched to answer queries.

2. Corporate Communication and Branding This department is responsible for giving updated information about business movement to the media and the public. Activities organized after the amalgamation include: • • •

A press conference titled ‘First Trading Day of PTTGC Shares on SET’ on 21 October 2011 at SET’s office Executive interviews by the media, including television, print media, and magazine to provide information about PTTGC’s structure, business directions, and vision Photo releases, press releases, scoops, and calendar news for the media, both in Bangkok and upcountry

3. Corporate Social Responsibility This department produces the 2011 Sustainability Report, based on Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G3.1, transparent, and available for examination through all communication channels. The Sustainability Report is intended to provide such information as social development activities and the open-house activity to allow community people to meet and get acquainted with PTTGC Executives. It was an opportunity for the Company to make known its policies involving social responsibility and foster understanding and relationship with the community and stakeholders. It was also a channel for local people’s voice, which will benefit the improvement of CSR plans. Visits to communities were also carried out not only to meet the local people, but to let them know about CSR projects in various aspects, such as education and public hygiene. Some other activities

178

were carried out with local people’s participation, including scholarships for nurses, high-school tuition, and a mobile clinic.

PTTGC also has two - way communication channels, e.g. letter and e-mail, which appear on its ‘Good Corporate Governance’ webpage. Shareholders, investors, and individuals can reach the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee or the Company Secretary through cg@pttgcgroup.com.

5. Responsibilities of the Board The Board plays a key role in corporate governance. By law, it is responsible for steering the business for the maximum benefit of the Company. Its performance reflects good corporate governance principles. The Board has performed its duties with integrity, prudence, care and transparency, and with understanding of legal commitments, Company regulations, shareholders’ resolutions, and corporate governance practices. For shareholders’ and investors’ confidence, it avoids committing actions against PTTGC’s interests. 5.1 Structure and Composition The Board consists of Directors, Independent Directors, Sub-Committees, the CEO, the President, and the Company Secretary. The structure is balanced and appropriate, with due checks and balances. 5.1.1

Directors Following the joint shareholders’ meeting between PTT Chemical Public Company Limited and PTT Aromatics and Refining Public Company Limited on 18 October 2011, the Board consisted of 15 Directors - 4 Non-Executives, 2 Executives (the CEO and the President), and 9 Independent Directors. The number of Independent Directors exceeds half of the Board. All Directors are experts with diverse experience in the petroleum, petrochemical, energy, management, accounting and finance, legal, security, and auditing, who apply their expertise, skills, qualifications, and experience for the benefit of the Company. The Board structure allows all Directors to perform their duties with efficiency. The Board discloses the Directors’ names, profiles, credentials, experience, and shareholding through the annual report, Form 56-1, and the Company’s website. Qualifications of Directors are set by the Board and included as part of the Articles of

179

Association of PTTGC and in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook, which can also be accessed on the Company’s website.

The Chairman, the CEO and the President are different individuals with clear separation of roles. The Chairman performs his/her duty with independence, and is able to express views on the Company’s performance under the Board’s policy and in the best interests of the Company, shareholders, and the country. The Chairman does not belong to any Sub-Committee. Such structure enables the Chairman to perform his/her duties efficiently.

PTTGC’s Articles of Association and Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook contain written roles and responsibilities of the Board and the Executives to facilitate control, examination, and assessment to assure attainment of PTTGC’s business goals, consisting of its vision, mission, strategies, financial goals, risk management, plans, and budgets. Business goals receive initial screening through the Management Committee, which comprises top Executives, before being raised to the Board for consideration. The Board has the Management Committee perform and report their performance under the policies and plans with regular follow-ups.

5.1.2

Independent Directors The Board reviews the Independent Directors’ independence through past and current performance as well as their business relationships to the Company under SEC and SET regulations. Currently numbering six, which exceeds a third of the composition of the Board and legal requirement, all Independent Directors perform their duties by taking into account equitable benefit of all stakeholders.

The Board includes the definition of Independent Directors in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook, in line with SEC and SET regulations. It also imposes stricter rules on their shareholding, which must not exceed 0.5% (while SEC’s limit is 1%). All Independent Directors possess independent directorship and self-certify their independence every year-end (and at the end of 2011).

5.1.3 Sub-Committees To ensure the effectiveness of the Board in performing their duties regarding corporate governance, the Board, at its meeting No. 1/2554 (2011) held on 19 October 2011, appointed

180

four Sub-Committees (also commonly called Committees), namely the Audit Committee, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the Corporate Governance Committee, and the Risk Management Committee, to conduct initial deliberation of the establishment of preliminary criteria regarding business management. All Sub-Committees regularly report their findings and performance for the year to the shareholders through the annual report.

The Board also lays down written charters for all Sub-Committees, including roles, duties and responsibilities, qualifications, terms, and meeting regulations. Such information is included in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook and posted on PTTGC’s website.

(1) Audit Committee This Committee consists of three Independent Directors, serving three-year terms. Members are knowledgeable and experienced enough for reviewing the reliability of the financial statements. The scope of their authority and responsibility is specified in the Committee’s charter. In reviewing the financial statements, the Committee is always joined by the external auditor, whose opinions as well as remarks and suggestions are noted in the meeting minutes. The Committee’s performance is regularly reported to the Board. Its annual performance appraisals are conducted, and the number of meetings attended by individual directors is disclosed. The Committee also completed the previous year’s report and included it in the annual report for shareholders’ acknowledgement. (2)

Nomination and Remuneration Committee This Committee consists of three Directors, two of whom are Independent Directors, with a three-year term. Its Chairman is an Independent Director tasked with the examination of the criteria and patterns of compensation for Directors and the CEO. The scope of work includes laying down the criteria and recruitment process with independence, fairness, transparency, and sensibility, comparable to industry peers.

(3) Corporate Governance Committee This Committee consists of four Directors, three of whom are Independent Directors,

181

with a three-year term. Its Chairman is also an Independent Director.

(4)

Risk Management Committee This Committee consists of three Directors, at least one of whom must be an Independent Director, with a three-year term.

The scope of work includes keeping control of the risk management system and process to minimize impacts on PTTGC and following up the work with due assessment to ensure that the business is run with properly prepared risk management measures.

5.1.4

Company Secretary At its meeting No. 1/2554 on 19 October 2011, the Board appointed Mrs. Walaiporn Puspavesa, Vice President, Corporate Secretary, under the Corporate Affairs, as Company Secretary under Section 89/15 of the Securities and Exchange Act, B.E.2535 (1992), which was amended by the Securities and Exchange Act, no.4, B.E. 2511 (2008).

In performing her duty, aside from regulatory requirements, the Company Secretary also ensures PTTGC’s and the Board’s compliance with PTTGC’s articles of association, relevant laws and regulations of the overseeing agencies, resolutions of the Board/shareholders’ meetings, and corporate governance practices. The Company Secretary also supports/coordinates training for the Directors and the Executives in relevant areas. The scope of work includes making reports to the Board and the Executives to inform them of any change in regulations and filing of important documents as required by law. The Company Secretary attends training, seminars, and various events organized by the regulators of listed companies to listen to clarifications while giving opinions on various issues. This will boost the efficiency of her functions and PTTGC’s corporate governance alike. Shareholders can contact the Company Secretary via e-mail: cg@pttgcgroup.com.

182

5.2 Terms of the Board of Directors As stated in PTTGC’s Articles of Association, each Director’s term is three years, in line with the Public Company Limited Act. Recognizing the limit to the efficiency of Directors, the Board takes seriously the number of companies where PTTGC’s Directors serve. The policy is outlined in the Good Corporate Governance Handbook, allowing Directors to serve no more than three listed companies. If the number exceeds this limit, taken into consideration are the suitability to the nature and condition of other companies’ businesses and the fact that they should emphasize companies in which PTTGC invests. PTTGC discloses the positions of each Director in other companies in the annual report, Form 56-1 and the Company’s website. As for the case of the CEO holding directorship in other companies, consideration must be made on the suitability of the nature and condition of those companies’ businesses and the fact that the person should emphasize companies in which PTTGC invests. 5.3 Roles and Responsibilities of the Board of Directors The Board, as the representatives of shareholders, is vital to the formulation of policies, vision, strategies, and directions of the business, and is tasked with overseeing and following up business movements through analyses of both internal and external factors, as well as expectations from various stakeholders to ensure business success and the maximum benefit for shareholders. PTTGC therefore sets up roles and responsibilities of the Board members beyond legal requirements. Directors are required to set role models for all staff to build trust among shareholders and investors in the following areas: 1) Formulation of Policies and Business Strategies The Board decides critical operation matters, namely its vision, mission, strategies, financial goals, risks, operating plans, and budgets. The Board also oversees the performance of the Executives to ensure its efficiency and effectiveness. 2) Controls for Value Creation The Board lays down policies that govern the entire organization while working to ensure that PTTGC has in place a risk management plan to create value through measures and controls to minimize impacts on the business. The Board also gives recommendations that are considered beneficial to PTTGC’s business.

183

3) Good Corporate Governance The Board ensures compliance with laws and regulations, as well as resolutions of shareholders’ meetings. It also formulates policies involving good corporate governance and business code of conduct and lays down guidelines for good, independent internal controls. The Board’s authority also covers disclosure of information vital to the business, safeguarding benefits and rights of shareholders to ensure their equality, examining matters with potential conflicts of interest to ensure fairness and transparency for the maximum benefit of the shareholders and the Company. It promotes personnel development for better understanding and a correct mindset in conforming to PTTGC’s corporate governance guidelines. Finally, the Board promotes integration of the internal control system with good corporate governance in all parts of the operations. 4) Promotion of Responsibilities for Society, the Environment, and Human Rights The Board values business conduct with responsibility for society and the environment through, attempts to reduce problems caused by the industry in parallel with the promotion of sustainable well-being of Thai society. The scope of work includes upgrading the quality of life of the people residing around PTTGC’s operating plants, participating in problem-solving, and seriously minimizing impacts on communities. Moreover, the Board respects human rights and fair labor treatment to ensure co-existence of communities and plants. 5.4 Appointment of Directors The appointment of Directors needs to be transparent and visible and involve the review process of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. The appointment process is in line with the good corporate governance policy and in accordance to the good practice of Thai Institute of Directors (IOD). The Nomination and Remuneration Committee screens with care the names of suitable candidates for the directorial positions - comprises of qualified individuals from various fields whose expertise, experience and capability are beneficial to the Company. Retiring Directors are not automatically re-appointed; the Committee will re-appoint the Directors based on their performances and responsibilities. Newly appointed Directors are considered based on their expertise, experience, collective knowledge and capability necessary for the operation of the Company. As for the appointment of Independent Directors, the Committee will consider based on the “Definition of Independent Director Qualifications”. In addition, the individual considered for appointment as Director must sign the Nomination form.

184

5.5 Corporate Governance Policy and Business Code of Conduct The Board produces the Corporate Governance Policy, Good Corporate Governance Handbook and Business Code of Conduct. The contents of the handbook are based on guidelines and principles of international standards. The Corporate Governance Committee and other departments responsible for stakeholders take part in reviewing the contents to ensure its completeness.

The Corporate Governance Committee regularly follows up the implementation of corporate governance plans and assesses its efficiency and effectiveness. The Committee meets every quarter to review compliance with PTTGC’s own corporate governance principles against those of other listed companies according to international standards. The Committee will then file a report on corporate governance to the Board and shareholders in the annual report.

PTTGC’s corporate governance framework requires assessment of the Board’s performance, that of the awareness of corporate governance among employees, and that of the satisfaction of each group of stakeholders, as well as that of the performance against the regulations of other organizations, such as SEC, IOD, and Thai Investors Association, to bring PTTGC’s corporate governance to international standards.

The Board ensures that corporate governance policy and business code of conduct are communicated thoroughly to employees and stakeholders, both inside and outside the Company. Communication is carried out through various formats and channels, including the announcement of the Corporate Governance Policy, presentation of Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook to each Director, the Executives and employees of PTTGC and affiliates; organization of employees orientation programs as well as many other corporate governance promotion programs to ensure awareness and implementation at work. Employee’s awareness and application of corporate governance principles are also assessed.

The Business Code of Conduct Handbook is produced and distributed to stakeholders, such as customers, creditors, business partners, and other relevant agencies. The PTTGC Suppliers Code of Conduct Handbook is also distributed to producers and suppliers of materials and services. PTTGC hopes that all business partners will abide by the same principles.

Every year, PTTGC and companies in PTT Group organize PTT Group CG Day activities to publicize the corporate governance principles among employees in the hope that they will apply these principles

185

in growing a sustainable business. This event, normally held around the year-end by listed companies in PTT Group, is warmly received by employees. Members of the Corporate Governance Committee also participate in the activity. As a result of the severe floods in late 2011, PTT Group CG Day has been postponed to 2012. However, PTT Group has joined the nation in volunteering programs to help flood victims to demonstrate its responsibility for stakeholders and society.

5.6 Internal Control and Audit Systems 5.6.1

Internal Controls The Board values internal controls that are adequate and appropriate to business conditions and encourages a work environment that supports good internal controls. In this regard, the management structure, work assignments, and employees competencies for each position are clearly defined. The Board promotes code of conduct and sound values with due consideration for impacts on the community, society, the environment, and stakeholders. Business objectives, strategies, risk management processes with follow-ups and assessment are in place to ensure goal attainment. Policies, regulations, and guidelines are examples showing internal controls that can always be referred to. Communication channels, reporting systems, and access to information technology are necessary for performing internal controls. Follow-up procedure set up by business units involved are also in place. Internal auditing performed by the external auditor is regularly carried out to ensure compliance with business plans, laws and regulations, and to prevent risks from off-track performance.

5.6.2

Internal Audit The Board set up the Audit Committee to take charge of the assessment of adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls, which must be appropriate to business conditions. This Committee must regularly report to the Board and the shareholders. An internal audit department is established as a separate unit with a direct reporting line to the Committee. The department is responsible for review and assessment of adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls system based on professional auditing standards. The scope of work also includes creation of added value for the business and provision of support for control mechanisms, as well as making a report on such assessment to the Board every quarter.

186

5.7 Risk Management The Board established the Risk Management Committee to lay down policies and provide recommendations on risk management, bearing in mind business goals. The Committee considers plans to deal with corporate risks and monitors risk levels as well as assessing company-wide risk management performance to ensure business goal attainment. This Committee files reports to the Board every quarter and when a major risk is discovered. Policies and a framework regarding risk management are incorporated in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook. Risk management performance reports are regularly submitted to Board meetings and are disclosed to shareholders through the annual report. 5.8 Board Meetings Following the amalagation on 19 October 2011, the first Board meeting was held on the same day. Four meetings have since been held to scrutinize various matters, and the number of meetings attended by each Director is disclosed as required by SEC regulations.

The Chairman of the Board and the CEO jointly decide the meeting agenda and screen meeting agendas. Each Director may propose meeting agendas, and the meeting agenda is clearly drawn up ahead of the meeting. An invitation is sent out to all members of the Board together with relevant documents around seven days before the meeting date so that the Directors may have enough time to consider the meeting agenda and the documents. PTTGC fixes the dates and times of Board meetings for the year so that each Director may effectively schedule his or her attendance at the meetings. Extraordinary meetings are scheduled as needed. If a Director cannot attend a meeting, he/she must send the Chairman a written notification of absence.

The Chairman of the Board chairs Board meetings and allows Directors to freely express their opinions. He also allocates appropriate time for the consideration of each issue. In decision-making, the meeting respects the majority vote of Directors present at the meeting. In case of equal votes, the Chairman exercises his voting right. Each Director has one vote and Directors with vested interests in a given issue abstain from voting to avoid conflicts of interest. Meetings are conducted with transparency and relevant information is completely disclosed

At each Board meeting, Executives concerned are present to provide information and receive policies for efficient implementation. Exceptions are made for some Board meetings or meetings

187

of Independent Directors, which will be attended only by qualified Directors. Such meetings are held twice a year. Some meetings involve only Non-Executive Directors, such as the Audit Committee meeting, which involves only the Committee and the external auditor in the absence of the Executives. This latter meeting is held once a year. To ensure independence in the consideration of each issue, the Company Secretary takes minutes and submits them to the Board for approval at the following meeting. The Chairman of the Board then signs to certify the accuracy of the minutes. Directors are allowed to make additional opinions and changes to the minutes before the Board’s approval. Approved minutes are filed as a confidential document with a control system to prevent amendments without being presented to the Board meeting. Documents are also filed in the electronic form for easy retrieval.

5.9 Remuneration of the Board of Directors and Executives The Board assigned the Nomination and Remuneration Committee to design compensation packages appropriate for Directors’ roles and responsibilities, which must be transparent, fair, and in accordance with laws and regulations concerned. This Committee designs the structure and elements of the remuneration package, taking into account practices in leading listed companies and PTTGC’s own performance. The Committee then formulates clear policies on Directors’ compensation payment and tables them before the Board, which then seeks approval from the shareholders. Each Director that also serves as a Sub-Committee member duly receives additional compensation. Under the topic ‘Management Structure’, the Board discloses the structure and elements of compensation as well as the sums of compensation paid to Directors as well as compensation for Directors serving as Directors of affiliates, as required by position or responsibility. 5.10 Remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer The Board has a policy on remuneration to the CEO based on the annual assessment of PTTGC’s performance, using some key performance indicators for strategies and targets, management ability, and year-round company competitiveness. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee designs remuneration packages that are fair and reasonable, and submits them to the Board for consideration. 5.11 Evaluation of the Performance of the Board of Directors The Corporate Governance Committee proposed three types of annual assessment of the Board to the Board meeting No.4/2554, held on 26 December 2011, i.e. the entire Board assessment,

188

individual self-assessment, and cross-assessment. The Board approved the proposal and had it incorporated in the Good Corporate Governance and Business Code of Conduct Handbook

Since the current Board started its term only in October 2011 after the merger, the annua assessment of the Board will start in 2012 to allow adequate time for both self-assessment and assessment of other directors. During the year, the assessment form and criteria will be designed in accordance with relevant standards to benefit the development of the Board’s performance.

5.12 Development of the Board of Directors and Executives Even though most of its Directors have gone through training, the Company values continuous development. It encourages Directors to further attend training or participate in activities organized by IOD, SET, and SEC to broaden their horizons, especially in areas that affect their duties, both as Directors and as Sub-Committee members. In 2012, PTTGC informs Directors about training courses every quarter so that they can attend. Handbooks, as well as other helpful documents, including the Company profile, corporate governance principles, business code of conduct, and SET and SEC regulations, are regularly distributed to Directors and the Executives. For new Directors, PTTGC laid out guidelines helpful for new Directors’ readiness to perform their duties. The Company Secretary coordinates the following: 1. Collection and delivery of documents concerning regulations, criteria, and guidelines for holding directorship, as well as information about PTTGC, to equip new Directors with basic information and to ensure that they observe laws and regulations. 2. Organization of a Board orientation to keep new Ddirectors informed about the structure and business nature of companies in PTTGC Group. For new Directors, the Company Secretary also arranges engagement with the management team and visits to operating plants. An orientation session was arranged before the first Board meeting took place on 19 October 2011, PTTGC’s founding date.

189

5.13 Succession Plan The Company has prepared systematic succession plans for key positions to replace those who retire or move to other positions as a result of business expansion or change in the business structure. There are also succession plans for the top management to ensure management continuity and facilitate selection of personnel who are competent and ready to assume key positions. PTTGC has made some improvement to human resource management regulations and criteria for the selection of successors based on the Career Management principle and Talent Management & Succession Planning. High-potential personnel are selected through a process that PTTGC considers appropriate. The selection process is communicated to ensure acknowledgment and understanding of the personnel development scope and desired behavior. Successful candidates are further developed to assume the positions. In going through the selection process, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee takes into account the candidatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; knowledge, competency, experience, and management vision to grow the business of both PTTGC and affiliates.
