Outcome of Meeting

The Board of Directors of PETRONAS Chemicals Group Berhad (“Company”) wishes to inform that the shareholders of the Company have at the 16th Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) held today passed all the resolutions set out in the Notice of Annual General Meeting dated 1 April 2014 by way of a show of hands with the exception to Resolution No. 2. Resolution No 2 relates to the re-election of Datuk Dr. Abd Hapiz bin Abdullah as the Director of the Company.

Resolution No. 2 was omitted from the Agenda because Datuk Dr. Abd Hapiz bin Abdullah has opted to retire as Chief Executive Officer of the Company at the expiry of his employment contract with PETRONAS on 30 April 2014. He therefore does not wish to seek for re-election at the AGM. Accordingly, Datuk Dr. Abd Hapiz bin Abdullah retired as the Director of the Company at the conclusion of the AGM.
