Company;(b)

Directors to the Group.
 
 4.
    
    ELIGIBILITY OF PARTICIPANTSNon-Executive Directors shall, unless they are also controlling shareholders (as defined in

5.
    
    OFFER TO PARTICIPATE5.1
    
    The Committee may extend an offer to participate in the Plan to such Non-Executive Directors
as the Committee may select in its absolute discretion, at any time during the period when the
Plan is in force.5.2
    
    No consideration shall be payable for an offer to participate in the Plan made to, or for
Ordinary Shares received by, Non-Executive Directors under the Plan.5.3
    
    An offer to participate in the Plan shall be personal to the Participant to whom it is
extended and, prior to the allotment to the Participant of the Ordinary Shares under the Plan,
shall not be transferred (other than to a Participants personal representative on the death
of that Participant), charged, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in
part, except with the prior approval of the Committee and if a Participant shall do, suffer or
permit any such act or thing as a result of which he would or might be deprived of any rights
under an offer to participate in the Plan without the prior approval of the Committee, his
participation in the Plan shall immediately cease.
 
 6.
    
    CONSEQUENCES OF CESSATION AS NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND CHANGE IN CONTROL OR SALE6.1
    
    Consequences of Cessation as Non-Executive Director6.1.1
    
    In the event that a Participant ceases to be a Non-Executive Director for any reason
whatsoever, his participation in the Plan shall, unless otherwise determined by the Committee,
immediately cease without any claim whatsoever against the Company.6.1.2
    
    Where the Committee exercises its discretion and determines that, a Participants
participation in the Plan shall not cease even though such Participant has ceased to be a
Non-Executive Director:
 (a)
    
    that Participant may, at the discretion of the Committee, earn a pro-rata
portion of the Ordinary Shares based on the length of the Participants service as a
Non-Executive Director during the period beginning on 1 January 2007 and ending on 31
December 2011, with the number of Ordinary Shares issuable to be determined as and when
the same is determined for the other Participants. Any such pro-rata portion shall be
determined in accordance with the same criteria that such Participant would have been
subject had the Participant continued to serve as a Non-Executive through 31 December
2011. Such Participant shall receive payment with regard to his pro-rata portion of the
Ordinary Shares on the same date the remaining Participants receive their Ordinary
Shares; and(b)
    
    in the event the Ordinary Shares are issuable on or after 31 December 2011, the
Committee shall have discretion as to whether or not 100% of the Ordinary Shares
issuable in payment of the pro-rata portion of the Ordinary Shares issuable shall
become immediately payable, or whether 50% of the pro-rata portion of the Ordinary
Shares issuable will be forfeited. Should the Ordinary Shares be unavailable for
payment as marketable securities, such Participants shall receive, in the form of cash
from the Company, the value of such Ordinary Shares that would be otherwise payable, as
determined in accordance with the EBITDA Valuation Formula.
 6.2
    
    Consequences of Change in Control or Sale6.2.1
    
    In the event of a Change in Control, determination of the number of Ordinary Shares issuable
shall accelerate immediately prior to such Change in Control event, and the Participants shall
have the right to participate in any sale transaction with Temasek or any of its subsidiaries
(as the case may be) on a tag-along basis in any transaction resulting in a Change in Control
with respect to all Ordinary Shares issuable.6.2.2
    
    In the event of a sale of Shares by Temasek or any of its subsidiaries which does not result
in a Change in Control (including in any Qualified Public Offering but excluding in any
Syndication), a pro-rata issuance of Ordinary Shares shall occur, and the Participants shall
have the right to participate in any sale transaction with Temasek or any of its subsidiaries
(as the case may be) on a tag-along basis with respect to all Ordinary Shares issuable.6.2.3
    
    The consideration for the sale of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any transaction
contemplated by Rule 6.2 shall be in the form of marketable securities. However, if marketable
securities are not available, the Participants shall receive, in the form of cash from the
Company, the value of such Ordinary Shares that would be otherwise payable, as determined in
accordance with the EBITDA Valuation Formula.

    DETERMINATION OF ORDINARY SHARES ISSUABLE, PAYMENT AND OTHER PROVISIONS7.1
    
    Determination of Number of Ordinary Shares Issuable7.1.1
    
    Unless as otherwise provided in Rule 6, determination of the number of Ordinary Shares
issuable under the Plan shall occur on or after 31 December 2011 and in accordance with this
Rule 7, subject to the Participant then holding office as a Non-Executive Director on 31
December 2011.7.1.2
    
    The number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to each Participant shall be determined by the
Committee, and shall depend on the extent to which the EP Targets are achieved or exceeded as
well as any other criteria and considerations deemed appropriate by the Committee. If issuance
of the Ordinary Shares occurs:
 (a)
    
    on or after 31 December 2011, only the EP Target for 2011 is applicable; and(b)
    
    before 31 December 2011, the EP Target for the most recently completed
financial year or for the most recently completed four financial quarters, as
determined by the Committee, is applicable.
 7.1.3
    
    The number of Ordinary Shares which may be issued under the Plan shall be calculated based
on 0.30% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (the Base Number), with the aggregate number of
the Ordinary Shares available for delivery to be subject to these Rules and to the Performance
Multiplier at each time of payment, whether on a pro-rata basis or completely, the minimum of
which would be 50% of the Base Number to be issued for EP of at least the Prescribed Lower
Amount below the relevant EP Target and the maximum of which would be 150% of the Base Number
to be issued for EP of the Prescribed Higher Amount or more above the relevant EP Target (and
proportionately between 50% and 150% of EP Target), rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary
Share. Where a minimum of the Prescribed Lower Amount below the relevant EP Target is not
met, the Committee shall have the power, in its good faith and reasonable discretion, to
determine the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares that may be deliverable. In the event that
the Performance Multiplier is applied to the maximum extent permissible under the Plan, an
aggregate of up to 0.45% of the Ordinary Shares could be payable and issued.7.2
    
    Payment7.2.1
    
    Subject to these Rules, to the Participants then holding office as a Non-Executive Director
as of 31 December 2011 and on the basis that there is no event triggering full issuance of
Ordinary Shares and payout (or pro-rata issuance of the Ordinary Shares and payout in excess
of 50%), upon determination of the number of Ordinary Shares issuable on or after 31 December
2011, 50% of the unissued Ordinary Shares issuable shall become immediately payable by way of
an allotment to the Participant of the relevant number of Ordinary Shares. Should the Ordinary
Shares be unavailable for payment as marketable securities, such Participants shall receive,
in the form of cash from the Company, the value of such Ordinary Shares that would be
otherwise payable, determined in accordance with the EBITDA Valuation Formula. The remaining
50% of the Ordinary Shares issuable shall remain as unissued Ordinary Shares and shall be
carried forward into a new share incentive plan to be adopted by the Company.7.2.2
    
    Payment shall be made as provided in these Rules no later than 15 March 2012, provided that
the audited financial statements of the Company are then available. Otherwise, payment shall
be made on such date as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.7.3
    
    Listing and Quotation of Shares7.3.1
    
    Where new Shares are allotted pursuant to these Rules at a time when the Shares are listed
or quoted on the Singapore Exchange (and/or such other stock exchange upon which the Shares
may be listed and quoted), the Company shall, as soon as practicable after such allotment,
apply to the Singapore Exchange (and/or such other stock exchange upon which the Shares may be
listed and quoted) for permission to deal in and for quotation of such Shares.7.3.2
    
    In the event that the Shares are then listed or quoted on the Singapore Exchange, Shares
which are allotted to a Participant pursuant to these Rules shall, unless otherwise determined
by the Committee, be issued in the name of, or transferred to, CDP to the credit of the
securities account of that Participant maintained with CDP or the securities sub-account of
that Participant maintained with a depository agent, in each case, as designated by that
Participant.

7.4
    
    Ranking of SharesNew Shares allotted and issued pursuant to these Rules shall:
 (a)
    
    be subject to all the provisions of the Articles and the Memorandum of
Association of the Company; and(b)
    
    rank in full for all entitlements, including dividends or other distributions
declared or recommended
in respect of the then existing Shares, the Record Date for which is on or after the
date the Ordinary Shares are issued pursuant to the Plan, and shall in all other
respects rank pari passu with other existing Shares then in issue.
 7.5
    
    Restrictions on Shares7.5.1
    
    Prior to a Qualified Public Offering, Shares allotted and issued pursuant to these Rules
shall be subject to the following restrictions and rights:
 (a)
    
    a right of first refusal by Temasek or any of its subsidiaries, as the case may
be, who is then a shareholder of the Company, on any sale by a Participant of his
Shares; and(b)
    
    a call right by Temasek or any of its subsidiaries, as the case may be, who is
then a shareholder of the Company, and a put right by the Participant (or, at the
discretion of the Committee, the beneficiaries of such Participant in the event of the
Participants death) upon a Participant ceasing to hold office as a Non-Executive
Director.
 7.5.2
    
    The price for the transfer of Shares pursuant to this Rule 7.5 shall be based on the
following EBITDA Valuation Formula:
 (a)
    
    EBITDA of the Company multiplied by the ratio of enterprise value/EBITDA
trailing twelve (12) months for the Companys listed peers equals enterprise value* of
the Company (EV).* Enterprise value of Companys listed peers is calculated based on the average share
price during the last two fiscal quarters prior to the valuation date.(b)
    
    EV minus net debt of the Company and minority interest of the Company equals
equity value at exit.(c)
    
    Price of shares equals equity value at exit divided by the Ordinary Shares at exit.
 7.5.3
    
    The restrictions and rights set out in this Rule 7.5 do not apply as long as the Shares are
listed and traded on the Singapore Exchange and/or any other internationally recognized stock
exchange, and shall lapse on any Qualified Public Offering of the Shares.
 
 8
    
    LIMITATIONS ON THE SIZE OF THE PLAN8.1
    
    The total number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan on any date:
 (a)
    
    when added to the total number of new Shares issued and issuable under the
Plan, shall not exceed 0.45% of the total number of the outstanding Ordinary Shares;
and(b)
    
    when added to the total number of new Shares issued and issuable (i) under the
Plan, and (ii) pursuant to awards granted under the Performance Share Plan 2009, shall
not exceed 15% of the total number of issued Shares from time to time (excluding
treasury shares).
 8.2
    
    The Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be authorized by the
Companys shareholders and all Ordinary Shares issuable under the Plan will be authorized and
approved by the Board.
 
 9.
    
    ADJUSTMENT EVENTS9.1
    
    In the event of any dividend, share split, combination, or acquisition involving a share
issuance or any exchange of shares, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation, spin-off,
recapitalisation or other distribution (other than ordinary cash dividends) of the assets of
the Company to its shareholders, or any other change affecting the Ordinary Shares or the
Share price, the Committee shall make such proportionate adjustments, if any, as necessary to
reflect such change with respect to the aggregate number and type of shares (subject to
compliance with applicable laws) that may be issued under the Plan and the applicable
performance targets or criteria with respect thereto.

 (a)
    
    no modification or alteration shall adversely affect the rights of any
Participant except with the
consent in writing of not less than a majority in number of those Participants whose
rights would be so adversely affected;(b)
    
    the definitions of Committee, Group, Non-Executive Director, Ordinary
Shares and Participant and the provisions of Rules 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and this
Rule 12 shall not be altered to the advantage of Participants except with the prior
approval of the Companys shareholders in general meeting; and(c)
    
    no modification or alteration shall be made without the prior approval of the
Singapore Exchange and such other regulatory authorities as may be necessary.
 For the purposes of Rule 12.1(a), the opinion of the Committee as to whether any
modification or alteration would adversely alter the rights of any Participant shall be
final, binding and conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Rule 12.1 shall
affect the right of the Committee under any other provision of the Plan to amend or adjust
any provision of the Plan or any offer to participate in the Plan.12.2
    
    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Rule 12.1, the Committee may at any
time by a resolution (and without other formality, save for the prior approval of the
Singapore Exchange, if necessary) amend or alter the Plan in any way to the extent necessary
or desirable, in the opinion of the Committee, to cause the Plan to comply with, or take into
account, any statutory provision (or any amendment or modification thereto, including
amendment of or modification to the Act) or the provision or the regulations of any regulatory
or other relevant authority or body (including the Singapore Exchange, if applicable).12.3
    
    Written notice of any modification or alteration made in accordance with this Rule 12 shall
be given to all Participants.

    DURATION OF THE PLAN13.1

maximum period of ten years commencing on the Adoption Date, provided always that the Plan may
continue beyond the above stipulated period with the approval of the Companys shareholders by
ordinary resolution in general meeting and of any relevant authorities which may then be
required.13.2
    
    The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Committee or, at the discretion of the
Committee, by resolution of the Company in a general meeting, subject to all relevant
approvals which may be required and if the Plan is so terminated, no further Ordinary Shares
shall be issued by the Committee hereunder.
 
 14.
    
    TAXES AND DEDUCTIONSAll taxes (including income tax) arising from the allotment and issuance of Ordinary Shares
to any Participant under the Plan shall be borne by that Participant. There shall be
deducted or withheld from any payment to be made under the Plan any amounts which the
Company or any of its subsidiaries is entitled, authorized or bound to deduct or withhold
pursuant to applicable laws to account of income tax or other levies payable on the payment
or any other applicable law or regulation. Without prejudice to the generality of the
foregoing, if the payment should be subject to contributions in connection with any
mandatory public savings plan administered by any governmental authority or statutory board,
the Company shall be entitled to reduce the payment by an amount equal to such contribution
amounts required to be made.
