The Board's comments on this appointment (including rationale, selection criteria, board diversity considerations, and the search and nomination process)
Mr. Lai Mun Onn is currently a Non-Executive and Independent Director, Chairman of Nominating Committee ("NC") and a member of the Audit Committee ("AC") and Remuneration Committee ("RC") of the Company.

The re-designation of Mr. Lai as the Company's Lead Independent Director was proposed by the NC in conjunction with the retirement of Mr. Low Beng Tin as Lead Independent Director of the Company at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 28 April 2026 in view of the 9-year term limit.

Save for Mr. Lai who abstained from deliberating his own re-designation as Board member and NC, the Board concurred with the recommendation of the NC and approved the redesignation of Mr. Lai as the Company's Lead Independent Director after the Annual General Meeting to be held on 28 April 2026. The Board considers Mr. Lai to be independent for the purpose of Rule 704(7) of the Catalist Rules of the SGX-ST.
