Accounting Period 1 January - 31 December Auditor Mr. Supachai Phanyawattano, CPA no. 3930 of Ernst & Young Office Limited Registrar Thailand Securities Depository Co., Ltd. Financial Advisor Kasikorn Securities Public Company Limited Dividend Policy To determine the dividend payment policy, the Company takes into account its financial needs in the next five years and the maintenance of the appropriate level of the debt-equity ratio in order to mitigate the financial risks that the Company may suffer. If the Company considers that it is able to pay dividends, it will, in the first instance, consider making dividend payments to the shareholders at the highest rate that its cash and cash flow permit. However, such rate must not be less than 50% of its net profit after corporate income tax, statutory reserve and other reserves required by the terms of the relevant agreements. The Addendum of Amendment to the Concession dated 20 March 2008 provides that the Company may pay dividends only after 10% of its net profit has been appropriated as reserve, although its statutory reserve has already been maintained at the required level, i.e. 10% of its registered capital. The Company's subsidiaries have not expressly determined their dividend policies. Each subsidiary's board may consider and propose the dividend policy from time to time to the general meeting of shareholders for approval. Under Pathum Thani Water's Concession, Pathum Thani Water may declare the dividend payments at the minimum rate of 10% of its paid-up capital. It is expected that Pathum Thani Water will be able to pay dividends from 2008 onwards. To enable Pathum Thani Water to pay dividends under the same condition as that stated in the Company's Concession, Pathum Thani Water will apply to the Concession Grantor to amend the condition on dividend payment in the Concession.
