Remarks :
Datuk Ahmad Nazri Bin Abdullah ("Datuk Nazri") was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Chairman of the Company on 19 June 2023. Article 100 of the Company's Constitution states that every director appointed shall hold office only until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting unless is re-elected. As the appointment of Datuk Nazri only took place after the notice of the 38th Annual General Meeting ("AGM") was sent out to the shareholders, his re-election as director was not in the Agenda of the AGM. Thus, pursuant to the operation of Article 100 of the Company's Constitution, Datuk Nazri has accordingly retired at the conclusion of the AGM held on 22 June 2023. The Board of Directors has passed a resolution to re-appoint Datuk Nazri as an Independent Non-Executive Chairman of the Company immediately after the conclusion of the AGM.
