9.2.6 Involvement of our key management in other businesses or corporations which carry on a similar trade as that of our Group or which are our customers and/or suppliers

As at the LPD, none of our key management has any interest, direct or indirect, in other businesses or corporations which are (i) carrying on a similar trade as that of our Group; or (ii) our customers and/or suppliers.

9.2.7 Shared management services between BEA and BHB

On 1 Jul 2009, we have entered into an arrangement for the provision of certain management support functions on an arm's length basis between BEA and BHB, whereby BHB has agreed to provide management support services, which include, but not limited to administrative and human resource matters, financial management and systems support, taxation matters, secretarial services as well as information technology services.

The provisions of management services from BHB allow us to consolidate one or more back-office operations used by our various departments such as finance, information technology and human resource, in respect of our operations. The current management arrangement allows us to enhance efficiency through a back­office outsourcing arrangement to BHB Group which reduce our personnel and infrastructure costs at BEA, while improving the management of certain centralised management functions at BEA, such as monitoring of bulk purchasing of raw materials and consumables as well as the sale of our CPO and PK.

9.2.8 Management succession plan

Managing succession is the cornerstone of our Company's strategic viability in ensuring business continuity through retention of high-value talent. It secures future leadership capability which is critical for driving organizational performance. Its process integrates the identification, assessment and development of talent with long­range strategic planning. Our development programmes are deSigned and selected to ensure that our employees are provided with current and highly relevant personal development and self-enhancement programme.

Company No.: 1245-M

9. INFORMATION ON OUR DIRECTORS, KEY MANAGEMENT, PROMOTER AND SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDERS (Cont'd)

In our efforts to ensure the effectiveness of our succession management, few approaches have been implemented, which includes:

(i) Building a leadership pipeline/talent pool to ensure leadership continuity;

(ii) Developing potential successors in ways that best fit their strengths;

(iii) Identifying the best candidates for categories of positions; and

(iv) Concentrating resources on the talent development process yielding a greater return on investment.

The management succession is a continuous process integrated with our Company's business planning cycles which ensures that the talent pool is constantly exposed to various aspects of our business activities. This enables the talent pool to acquire full understanding of responsibilities, decision making process and knowledge to advance to higher management positions.

This approach involves the process where critical positions are identified and a talent pool from middle management and above is established. Potential employees are then put through various assessment tests to identify leadership capabilities that could be harnessed for greater value to benefit our Company and the individual. The talent pool is dynamic and is continuously assessed to ensure that they remain relevant to the needs of our Group and reach their full potential.

BHB

BHB can trace its history to 1828 when it was founded as a trading company in Singapore. Subsequently, upon consolidating its various businesses, BHB was incorporated in Malaysia on 25 July 1960 as a public limited company under the name of Boustead & Company (1960) Limited.

The company changed its name to Boustead Holdings Limited on 18 February 1966 and had on 15 April 1966 assumed its present name.

BHB, with well over 180 years since its establishment, has evolved and reinvented itself from a modest trading company to a leading participant in the plantation sector and now a well-diversified homegrown conglomerate. The BHB Group has an active interest in six primary sectors of the economy, namely plantation, property, pharmaceutical, heavy industries, trading & industrial and finance & investment.

The principal activities of each division are as follows:

(i) plantation - primarily involved in the cultivation of oil palm crops and the production of crude palm oil and palm kernel;

(ii) property - development and investment of properties, management of projects and properties, as well as hotel operations;

(iii) pharmaceutical - manufacturing of generic pharmaceuticals, logistics and distribution, sales and marketing, supply of medical products & services and hospital equipping;

(iv) heavy industries - shipbuilding, maintenance of vessels and defence-related products, fabrication of offshore structures as well as provision of helicopter services to the oil and gas industry;

(v) trading & industrial - mainly involved in petroleum retail, building materials and paints; and

(vi) finance & investment - financial services involving consumer banking, investment banking, islamic banking, general and life insurance as well as investment in tertiary education.

9. INFORMATION ON OUR DIRECTORS, KEY MANAGEMENT, PROMOTER AND SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDERS (Cont'd)

Our Directors believe that L TAT's degree of influence in the daily commercial affairs of the L TAT Plantation Associates and the Listed Plantation Companies is remote and hence, will not give rise to a conflict of interest situation with our Group's plantation businesses due to the following:

• none of LTAT's nominee directors on the LTAT Plantation Associates' board of directors are members of our Board;

• none of L TAT's investment panel members are members of our Board or the board of directors of BHB, our controlling shareholder;

• as a superannuation scheme managing the contributions of serving members of the Armed Forces of Malaysia, L TAT is not involved in the daily commercial affairs of the L TAT Plantation Associates and the Listed Plantation Companies. Hence, LTAT's investments in the L TAT Plantation Associates and the Listed Plantation Companies are passive in nature. Further, the extent of L TAT's investment activity in businesses and commercial enterprises are limited to the parameters prescribed under the Tabung Angkatan Tentera Act (Act 101) 1973, whereby L TAT is restricted from investing amounts exceeding 30% of the total shareholders' funds of any business and commercial enterprise, unless the prior written approval of the Minister of Defence and Minister of Finance are obtained;

• investment decisions made by L TAT's investment panel are not influenced by L TAT's board of directors, whereby the majority of L TAT's investment panel members are not members of L TAT's board of directors;

• none of the other shareholders and directors of the L TAT Plantation Associates are members of our Board and LTAT's board of directors and/or investment panel;

• none of the members of L TAT's board of directors and/or investment panel are LTAT's nominee directors on the board of directors of the Plantation Associates. Further, L TAT's nominee directors on the board of directors of the L TAT Plantation Associates are not involved in the day-to-day management of L TAT;

• the PAT of the Plantation Associates is not comparable to our Group, whereby the aggregate PAT of the Plantation Associates (after taking into account LTAT's interest in the Plantation Associates) for the FYE 2012 is approximately less than 8% compared to our Group's pro forma PAT for the FYE 31 December 2012 of approximately RM161.3 million; and

• the HFT and AFS Investment is purely for investment purposes with the objective of realising gains through capital appreciation and dividend payout. Further, the HFT and AFS Investment amounts to less than 1.0% of the issued and paid-up share capital of each of the Listed Plantation Companies as at the LPD.
