Medium Term Headline KPIs (FY2010-FY2012)

THP is targeted to surpass its medium term KPI of expanding our land bank to 50,000 ha by 2012 at strategic locations to complement our growth strategy, one year ahead of our target time. We have entered into Conditional Sale & Purchase Agreements to materialize this target and it would then increase our land bank by 19,782 ha to 59,153 ha.

Commentary of Headline KPIs

1. Our concerted focus on the agenda of Sustainable Plantation Operation are built on two principles of Good Agriculture & Miling Practices and effective cost management. In achieving these goals, we have reshaped and reenergized the Performance Improvement Program, the driver responsive in enhancing our operational productivity and efficiency thus translating into sustainable results.

2. It is the policy of our Directors in recommending dividends to allow shareholders to participate in the profits of our Group as well as retaining adequate reserves for the future growth of our Group.

THP will take into consideration among others the Group's level of cash, gearing, return on equity, retained earnings, projected levels of capital expenditure, investment plans and its financial position in recommending and determining the level of dividend payments if any, in any particular financial year or period.
