PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS’ MANDATE FOR RECURRENT RELATED PARTY<br />

TRANSACTIONS OF A REVENUE OR TRADING NATURE<br />

1. INTRODUCTION<br />

On 18 July 20<strong>08</strong>, the Company had announced to <strong>Bursa</strong> Securities that the Board of Directors of<br />

<strong>PCCS</strong> would seek shareholders’ approval for the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate for Recurrent<br />

Related Party Transactions of a revenue or trading nature.<br />

On 24 August 2007, at an AGM of <strong>PCCS</strong>, the Company obtained the Mandate. Pursuant to<br />

Paragraph 10.09 of Chapter 10 of the Listing Requirements, the Mandate is subject to annual<br />

renewal. In this respect, any authority conferred by the Mandate shall only continue to be in<br />

force until the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM of the Company, at which time it will lapse,<br />

unless authority for its renewal is obtained from the shareholders of the Company at the<br />

forthcoming AGM or at an EGM immediately following an AGM.


The purpose of this <strong>Circular</strong> is to provide you with details of the Proposed Shareholders’<br />

Mandate and to seek your approval for the resolution pertaining to the Proposed Shareholders’<br />

Mandate to be tabled at the forthcoming AGM.<br />

2. DETAILS OF THE PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS’ MANDATE<br />

Under Part E, Paragraph 10.09 of the Chapter 10 of the Listing Requirements, <strong>PCCS</strong> may seek its<br />

shareholders’ mandate with regards to the Recurrent Related Party Transactions which are<br />

necessary for <strong>PCCS</strong> Group’s day-to-day operations subject to the following :<br />

(a) the transactions are in the ordinary course of business and are on terms not more favourable<br />

to the related <strong>part</strong>y than those generally available to the public ;<br />

(b) the shareholders’ mandate is subject to annual renewal and disclosure is made in the annual<br />

report of the aggregate value of transactions conducted pursuant to the shareholders’ mandate<br />

during the financial year ; and<br />

(c) in a meeting to obtain shareholders’ mandate, the interested director, interested major<br />

shareholder or interested person connected with the interested director or interested major<br />

shareholder; and where it involves the interest of an interested person connected with a<br />

director or major shareholder, such director or major shareholder must not vote on the<br />

resolution approving the transactions. An interested director or interested major shareholder<br />

must ensure that persons connected with him abstain from voting on the resolution approving<br />

the transactions.<br />

The Mandate was obtained at its AGM on 24 August 2007. In accordance with the terms of the<br />

Mandate, it will continue to be in force until the forthcoming AGM of the Company on 26<br />

August 20<strong>08</strong>, at which time it will lapse, unless the ordinary resolution to approve the Proposed<br />

Shareholders' Mandate is passed at the forthcoming AGM or at an EGM immediately following<br />

the forthcoming AGM.<br />

In this respect, any authority conferred by the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate at the<br />

forthcoming AGM shall only continue to be in force until :<br />

(a) the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company, at which time it will lapse, unless by a<br />

resolution passed at the meeting, the authority is renewed;<br />

(b) the expiration of the period within which the next AGM is required to be held pursuant to<br />

Section 143(1) of the Act (but such period shall not extend to such extension as may be<br />

allowed pursuant to Section 143(2) of the Act) ; or<br />

(c) revoked or varied by resolution passed by the shareholders in a general meeting ;<br />

whichever is the earlier date.<br />

Thereafter, the approval from the shareholders for subsequent renewals of the mandate will be<br />

sought at each subsequent AGM or at an EGM immediately following each subsequent AGM of<br />

the Company.<br />

The Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate will cover Recurrent Related Party Transactions for the<br />

period between the forthcoming AGM on 26 August 20<strong>08</strong> until the date of the next AGM of the<br />

Company.<br />

2.4 Procedures on Which Transaction Prices Are Determined<br />

The Company has established the following procedures to determine transaction prices with<br />

Related Party :<br />

(a) All directors and major shareholders have to declare their interest in any transaction between<br />

them or persons connected to them with <strong>PCCS</strong> Group.<br />

(b) A register is maintained on Recurrent Related Party Transactions.<br />

(c) Before the transactions are entered into, the internal auditors are to review the terms of<br />

Recurrent Related Party Transactions to ensure that they are conducted at arm’s length and<br />

based on normal commercial terms not more favourable to the Related Party than those<br />

generally available to the public, consistent with the Group’s usual business practices and<br />

policies and will not be detrimental to minority shareholders of <strong>PCCS</strong>.<br />

(d) Before the transactions are entered into, the Audit Committee is to review the terms of<br />

Recurrent Related Party Transactions and to provide a statement that they have reviewed and<br />

are satisfied with the review procedures to the extent that the procedures are relevant and<br />

sufficient to ensure that such Recurrent Related Party Transactions will be carried on normal<br />

commercial terms not more favourable to the Related Party than those generally available to<br />

the public and which are not detrimental to minority shareholders of <strong>PCCS</strong>.<br />

(e) The transaction prices, terms and conditions are determined by market forces of supply and<br />

demand under similar commercial terms for transactions with third <strong>part</strong>ies. In addition,<br />

quotations obtained from third <strong>part</strong>ies by <strong>PCCS</strong> Group’s purchasing de<strong>part</strong>ments will be used<br />

for comparison. Ceteris peribus, the Group will buy from the supplier with the lowest price.<br />

2.5 Benefits to <strong>PCCS</strong> Group Transacting With Related Party<br />

The Related Parties are both good customers as well as reliable suppliers of goods required by the<br />

Group. The goods are priced competitively and all transactions are on normal commercial terms<br />

at arm’s length basis. Due to the Related Parties’ indepth understanding of <strong>PCCS</strong> Group’s<br />

business activities and vice versa, prompt and better services in terms of delivery and reliability<br />

are guaranteed. Quality of goods delivered are also ensured.<br />

15


2.6 Disclosure and Review Procedures for Recurrent Related Party Transactions<br />

<strong>PCCS</strong> has established various methods and procedures to ensure that Recurrent Related Party<br />

Transactions are undertaken on an arm’s length basis and on normal commercial terms, which are<br />

consistent with <strong>PCCS</strong>’s usual business practices and policies and are on terms not more<br />

favourable to the related <strong>part</strong>y than those extended to third <strong>part</strong>ies/the public and are not to the<br />

detriment of the minority shareholders.<br />

To monitor the Recurrent Related Party Transactions, the following review procedures have been<br />

implemented and will continue to be in force for the period under which the Proposed<br />

Shareholders’ Mandate is sought for :<br />

(a) any tender, quotation or contract received from or proposed to be entered into with a Related<br />

Party will not be approved unless :<br />

• the pricing of the <strong>PCCS</strong> Group for the services, products and materials and/or equipment<br />

to be provided or supplied and/or received or purchased is determined in accordance with<br />

the Group’s usual business practices and policies, consistent with the usual margin of the<br />

Group with unrelated third <strong>part</strong>ies;<br />

• the terms are not more favourable to the Related Party than those extended to unrelated<br />

third <strong>part</strong>ies and available to the public and the Recurrent Related Party Transactions are<br />

not detrimental to minority shareholders of <strong>PCCS</strong> ; and<br />

• in respect of the provision and/or supply and/or purchase of equipment, machinery and/or<br />

products after taking into account of factors such as pricing, quality, delivery schedules<br />

and, where applicable, preferential rates, rebates or discounts accorded for bulk<br />

purchases, the terms offered are fair and reasonable and on the <strong>PCCS</strong> Group’s<br />

commercial rates.<br />

(b) the Audit Committee may, as they deem fit, request for additional information pertaining to<br />

the transactions from independent sources or advisers ;<br />

(c) in addition to the guidelines set out above, the Audit Committee has also undertaken the<br />

following :<br />

• the Audit Committee will review from time to time the Related Party Transactions being<br />

performed by the <strong>PCCS</strong> Group ;<br />

• the Audit Committee will carry out an annual review to ascertain that the established<br />

guidelines and procedures for Related Party Transactions have been complied with; and<br />

• the Audit Committee will consider from time to time whether the established guidelines<br />

and procedures for Related Party Transactions have become inappropriate, and/or are<br />

unable to ensure that the transactions will be on normal commercial terms, and/or will<br />

prejudice the interests of shareholders generally.<br />

(d) the Company will also maintain a record of Related Party Transactions carried out pursuant<br />

to the Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate. The Company’s internal audit plan will incorporate a<br />

review of the record in respect of the transactions entered into during the year.<br />

16


2.7 Statement by Audit Committee<br />

The Audit Committee of the Company has seen and reviewed the procedures mentioned in<br />

paragraph 2.6 above and are satisfied that the said procedures are sufficient to ensure that the<br />

Recurrent Related Party Transactions will be carried out on normal commercial terms which are<br />

not prejudicial to the interests of the shareholders, and the terms are not more favourable to the<br />

Related Party than those generally available to the public and such transactions are not<br />

detrimental to minority shareholders of <strong>PCCS</strong>.<br />

The Audit Committee shall periodically review the Recurrent Related Party Transactions and also<br />

review the established guidelines and procedures to ascertain its compliance. If during the<br />

periodic reviews, the Audit Committee is of the opinion that the guidelines and procedures are<br />

not sufficient to ensure that the Recurrent Related Party Transactions :<br />

• will be conducted at arms length basis ;<br />

• are on normal commercial terms in the ordinary course of business ;<br />

• are not more favourable to the Related Party than those generally available to the public ; and<br />

• are not prejudicial to the interests of shareholders,<br />

the Company will seek a fresh mandate based on new guidelines and procedures.<br />

3. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS’ MANDATE<br />

The Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate is intended to enhance the Group’s ability to pursue<br />

business opportunities which are time-sensitive in nature and to eliminate the need to announce<br />

and convene separate general meetings on each occasion to seek shareholders’ prior approval for<br />

the entry by the relevant company in the Group into such transactions. This will substantially<br />

reduce the expenses associated with the convening of general meeting on an ad hoc basis,<br />

improve administrative efficiency considerably, and allow manpower, resources and time to be<br />

channelled towards attaining other corporate objectives.<br />

4. FINANCIAL EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED SHAREHOLDERS’ MANDATE<br />

The Proposed Shareholders’ Mandate will not have any impact on the share capital and<br />

shareholding structure of <strong>PCCS</strong> and it will not have any significant impact on the NTA per share<br />

and earnings per share of the <strong>PCCS</strong> Group.<br />
