    4. Voting by poll
      According to Paragraph 8.29(A)(1) of the Main Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, all Resolutions set out in the
      Notice of the 108th AGM will be put to vote by poll.
    5. Agenda 1
      The Audited Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 April 2022 together with the accompanying Reports, will be presented at the Company’s 108th AGM following Section 340(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 2016, under Agenda 1 for discussion only. No voting is required.
    6. Agenda 2
      According to Section 230(1) of the Companies Act, 2016, the fees of the Directors and any benefits payable to the Directors of a listed company and its subsidiaries shall be approved at a general meeting.

      During the year, the Board, through the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, reviewed the structure and level of fees and benefits accorded to the Chairperson and the Non-Executive Directors. After review, the Board maintained the structure and level of fees for Board Commitees, meeting allowances, and other benefits. However, given the increased Directors’ responsibilities in supporting UMB Group’s business plan, the Board proposed increasing the quantum of fees for the Chairperson and the Non- Executive Directors as follows:-

      Directors’ Fees* Since FY2017/2018 FY 2021/2022
      Non-Executive Chairperson RM100,000 per annum RM120,000 per annum
      Non-Executive Director RM60,000 per annum RM70,000 per annum
      * in relation to United Malacca Berhad.

      Therefore, through Resolution 1, the Board seeks shareholders’ approval to pay the Directors’ fees to the Company’s Chairperson and Non-Executive Directors based on the new quantum of fees.

      Resolution 1, if approved, will authorise the payment of Directors’ fees totalling RM873,777 to the Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries for the financial year ended 30 April 2022.

    7. Agenda 3
      Remuneration (excluding Directors’ fees) payable to the Directors of the Company for the financial year ended 30 April 2022 comprises the following:-

      Board Committees Chairman (RM) Members (RM)
      Audit Committee 40,000 30,000
      Nomination and Remuneration Committee 30,000 20,000
      Executive Committee 40,000 30,000
      Board Tender Committee 20,000 10,000
      Meeting Allowance 1,000 per meeting

      Resolution 2, if approved, will authorise the payment of remuneration (excluding Directors’ fees) totalling RM451,000 to the Non- Executive Chairperson and Non-Executive Directors for the financial year ended 30 April 2022.

    8. Agenda 4
      According to Clause 130 of the Company’s Constitution, Mr. Teo Leng and Dato Dr. Nik Ramlah Binti Nik Mahmood retire by rotation and are eligible for re-election at the Company’s 108th AGM. Mr. Teo Leng and Dato Dr. Nik Ramlah Binti Nik Mahmood have offered themselves for re-election.

      Through the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the Board assessed the performance of Mr. Teo Leng and Dato Dr. Nik Ramlah Binti Nik Mahmood during the annual evaluation exercise of the Board Committees and individual Directors. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Board are satisfied with the performance and effectiveness of Mr. Teo Leng and Dato Dr. Nik Ramlah Binti Nik Mahmood.

      Therefore, the Board recommends the shareholders approve Resolutions 3 and 4 to re-elect Mr. Teo Leng and Dato Dr. Nik Ramlah Binti Nik Mahmood as the Company’s Directors.
