NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that, by virtue of the resolutions of the Board of Directors' Meeting No. 3/2023 which was held on Thursday, March 9, 2023, the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders No. 30/2023 is to be convened on Friday, April 28, 2023 at 10.00 hrs. via electronic media (E-Meeting) only in compliance with the Emergency Decree on Electronic Meetings B.E. 2563 (2020) and other related laws and regulations, to consider the agendas as follows:

Agenda 1

To acknowledge the annual report and the Board of Directors' report of the 2022 performance

Objective and Reason: In order to comply with Clause 32 of the Company's Articles of Association which stipulates that the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders shall acknowledge the report from the Board of Directors about the Company's operating performance and the significant changes of the previous year. In this regard, the Company's operating performance and the significant changes for the year 2022 were summarized in the 2022 Annual Report (Form 56-1 One Report) in the form of QR Code (Attachment No. 1) submitted together with this notice.

Board of Directors' opinion: The Board of Directors deemed it appropriate to submit the report of the Company's operating performance and the significant changes of the Company for the year 2022 to the shareholders' meeting for acknowledgement.

Voting:

This agenda is for acknowledgement and does not require voting.

Agenda 2

To consider and approve the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the auditors' report

Objective and Reason: In order to comply with Section 112 of the Public Limited Companies Act B.E. 2535 as amended (the "PLCA") and Clause 35 of the Company's Articles of Association which stipulate that the Board of Directors shall prepare the Audited Balance Sheets (Statements of Financial Position) and Statements of Income as of the last day of the accounting year of the Company for submission to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders for approval.

Board of Directors' opinion: The Board of Directors deemed it appropriate to propose the financial statements ended December 31, 2022 audited and certified by the auditor of KPMG Phoomchai Audit Limited (KPMG) and was agreed by the Audit Committee to the shareholders' meeting for approval. The Company financial status and the operating performance for the year 2022 are summarized as per Attachment No. 2.

Voting:

This resolution must be passed by a majority of votes of the shareholders and proxy holders who attend the meeting and cast their votes.

Agenda 3

To consider and approve the omission of dividend payment for the 2022 performance and the allocation of profit as a legal reserve

Objective and Reason: In order to comply with the Clause 32 of the Company's

Articles of Association which stipulates that the profit appropriation shall be considered and approved by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and the Company has a policy to pay dividends to its shareholders in the amount of not less than 50 percent of net income in the consolidated financial statements after tax and legal reserve (if any) and not exceeding the retained earnings presented in the Company's financial statements and not opposed the Public Limited Companies Act. However, it is subject to the Company's investment and use of proceeds plan

which the Board may consider paying dividends as appropriate by taking into account shareholders' interests. In 2022, the Company's consolidated financial

statements reported a net loss of THB 501 million. Thus, it is deemed appropriate to propose the omission of 2022 dividend payment for the 2022 performance due to the Company's performance loss. The previous dividend payment for comparison is set out in Attachment No. 3.

As per Section 116 of Public Limited Companies Act B.E. 2535 including the additional amendment ("PLCA") and Clause No. 38 of the Company specified that

the Company shall allocate not less than five percent of its annual net profit less the accumulated losses brought forward (if any) to a reserve fund until this fund attains an amount not less than ten percent of the registered capital, the Company has already allocated its profits as legal reserve until it currently attains ten percent of its registered capital as per legal requirement and Articles of Association of the Company. Therefore, there is no additional allocation of profit as legal reserve.

Board of Directors' opinion: The Board of Directors deemed it appropriate to propose to the shareholders' meeting to approve the omission of dividend payment for the 2022 performance due to the Company's performance loss, and there is no

additional allocation of profit as legal reserve as it already attained ten percent of its registered capital as required by law and the Articles of Association of the Company.

Voting:

This resolution must be passed by a majority of votes of the shareholders and proxy holders who attend the meeting and cast their votes.

Agenda 4

To consider and approve the appointment of directors to replace those retiring by rotation

Objective and Reason: In order to comply with Clause 14 of the Company's Articles of Association which stipulates that one-third of all directors must retire in the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. The Company provided an opportunity to shareholders to nominate persons to be directors in advance during October 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 but no shareholder proposed any name for consideration. At this meeting, 4 directors whose term will expire by rotation are as follows:
