CSR in Process is our CSR project that is related to the insurance business. The project does not
solely focus on making profit, but also considers benefits of our customers and contribution to general public.
In addition to providing insurance coverage and making timely and fair indemnity payment, CSR in Process
also aims to maximize the income benefits and reduce the risks to customers through insurance by providing
products and service such as COVID-19 Insurance, Agricultural Insurance to assist rice farmers, Livestock
Corn Insurance, disaster prevention and mitigation, Dhipaya’s Road Safety Program and TIP Smart Assist
Team.
CSR after Process or “Activities for Society” are the activities organized by organizations which
provide benefit to society in various aspects. Activities are usually reactive approaches which are different from
the main business processes. Activities include disaster relief and voluntary activities for public interest, which
are normally outside the normal working hours.
TIP’s Strategic CSR consists of seven main campaigns. Additionally, there are other annual public
charities and social service projects. These activities include:
1. The “Dhipaya’s Care and Share” project has been held regularly and continually on 84 occasions,
to promote education and improve the quality of life for disadvantaged youth, which will lead to
national development in the future, and the improvement of the quality of life and educational
establishments for educationally and socially disadvantaged youths (In 2021, TIP could not yet
organize any project because of the continued outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted
in educational institutions cancelling their educational activities and other relevant activities).
2. The “Dhipaya Merit Making for His Majesty the King” which aims to strengthen Buddhism and
promote Thai arts and culture. This has been continually held on a total of 178 occasions.
3. The “Dhipaya Saves the Earth” which aims to conserve and improve the environment and has been
held on 21 occasions.
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 3.12 Page 7
4. The “Dhipaya’s Carry on the King’s Philosophy” was based on “Dhipaya Insurance: Following The
King’s Journey Passport” Project to instill HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej Borommanatthabophit the
Great’s sufficiency economy philosophy, which has been proven effective at 81 learning centers on
9 different routes, to youth, educators and the general public. The public can apply these teachings
and real-life experiences in their daily lives to help develop the country. This project has been held
on 12 occasions.
5. The “Hanuman Volunteer Unit” which aims to relieve the suffering of people in need. This unit has
been continually providing assistances since its establishment in 2001. Executives and employees
who are Dhipaya volunteers are always ready to assist disaster victims and disadvantaged people
in any circumstances. For example, they helped with the relief flood disaster in Sakon Nakhon
Province, Roi Et Province, Loei Province, Ubon Ratchathani Province, Nakhon Si Thammarat
Province, Surat Thani Province etc., restoration of important religious buildings damaged by
earthquakes in the Northern region, and traffic assistance during important festivals such as New
Year and Songkran.

culture among the Company’s employees. This has been publicized through public relations
materials and media to expand the concept and the results to the employees’ families, society, and
stakeholders, as well as to make both employees and the general public aware of road safety and
the importance of strictly adhering to road traffic regulations.

the Company as follows:

Anti-Corruption Practices
TIP participated in Thailand’s Private Sector Collective Action Coalition Against Corruption (CAC)
on 26 July 2013, and was certified as a member of CAC on 18 August 2017. TIP implemented the anti-
corruption frameworks and policies after the Board of Directors approved the Anti-Corruption Policy and
practices for anti-corruption, which came into effect on 28 June 2016 to be guidelines for the operation of all
directors, executives, and employees in TIP. In addition, in order for the employees of the Company to

Section 1 Part 3.12 Page 8
TIP Anti-Corruption Policy
TIP has established an Anti-Corruption Policy to lay down the framework for the directors,
executives, and employees of TIP to strictly adhere to and comply with in their performance of duties. Also,
TIP has issued the handbook on anti-corruption practice to define the duties and responsibilities of every
employee of TIP in compliance with this policy, as well as guidelines for treatment of its business partners and
business representatives, and operational frameworks in relation to business activities, including accounting
(making-receiving payment) and procurement in which operating procedure has been specified in order to
ensure that the procurement process of TIP is carried out transparently and free from corruption.
In the implementation of these operational frameworks in the procurement process, for example
sales promotional activities, TIP has established the consideration and approval process for the payment of
sales promotional expenses under the scope of authority specified by TIP. In addition, TIP has also put in place
the review process for the spending of sales promotional expenses which is consistent with its internal control
process, in order to control and ensure that the spending of such sales promotional expenses is not an excuse
for corruption. The procedure and process include:
1. An outsider agency requests for the payment of sales promotional expenses;
2. All departments in TIP that received the request for payment shall consider the details and
information if the requested transactions are in accordance with the criteria as follows:
in compliance with TIP’s Anti-Corruption Policy;
in line with the ordinary course of business of TIP and the insurance industry.
3. Examines information in support of the proposal for approval to ensure that:
The outsider agency which made such request is truly existent and has a definite place of
business, with clear objectives of spending these expenses.
The outsider agency clearly specifies a responsible person for the disbursement of expenses.
4. Prepare a memorandum for approval, if the approval to prepare a payment note is granted by an
authorized person under the scope of authority in TIP.
5. The Finance Department examines the authority of the person granting approval, as well as the
supporting documents for the disbursement of expenses, and requests any additional documents (if
any).
6. The Accounting Department receives the payment documents from the Finance Department in order
to verify the correctness and completeness of the documents and the bookkeeping records.
7. The Accounting Department files bookkeeping documents in the document number order by
methods specified in the quality filing procedure in accordance with the ISO system.
In addition to the implementation of operational frameworks as stated above, TIP has put in place
an audit process, in which the Audit Department has a duty to perform audit independently according to the
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 3.12 Page 9
audit plan for the internal control system on corruption as approved by the Audit Committee on a yearly basis,
and to report the audit results directly to the Audit Committee, in order to ensure that the TIP’s internal control
over corruption is carried out efficiently and in accordance with the requirements of the relevant authorities.
The Audit Committee will further report the audit results to the Board of Directors. In the case that any remark
is found from the audit, the Audit Department will follow up the rectification results in order to ensure that any
rectification has been performed appropriately, and propose the follow-up results to the Audit Committee for
further consideration and proposal to the Board of Directors.
With regard to the audit plan for the year 2020, the Audit Department performed an audit of the
internal control system on corruption as a part of the audit of operational procedure in two business units, which
was proposed to the Audit Committee on 27 January 2021 and 22 February 2021. The audit results showed
that payments were made in accordance with the specified procedures and were consistent with TIP’s Anti-
Corruption Policy, and the internal control system is sufficiently effective. The duties of performer, reviewer,
and approver of proposed transactions were segregated according to TIP’s delegation of authority, so as to
consider the proposed transaction prior to entering into the transaction if it is in compliance with the Anti-
Corruption Policy, and in the ordinary course of business of TIP as well as the insurance industry. In addition,
the transactions have also been audited by the Finance Department and the Audit Department in accordance
with the specified procedures.

Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 21/2551 Re: Rules on Connected Transactions, together with
the Notification of the Board of Governors of the Stock Exchange of Thailand Re: Disclosure of Information

Since the Company was incorporated on 31 July 2020, as a result, the Company has only the
financial statements for the period from 31 July 2020 (the incorporation date) to 31 December 2020 and financial

3.16 Management Discussion and Analysis
The Company was incorporated on 31 July 2020 to implement the Shareholding and Management
Restructuring Plan of TIP. As a result, as at the date on which the Company files the application for offering
for sale of newly issued securities and registration statement for securities offering together with a tender offer
for the securities of the listed company for the shareholding and management restructuring (“Form 69/247-1”)
with the SEC, the Company has only financial statements for the period from 31 July 2020 to 31 December
2020 and for the three-month period ended on 31 March 2021, which do not reflect and cannot be used in the
analysis of the operating performance and financial position of the Company.
The Company operates its business as a holding company and does not engage in significant
business of its own. After the tender offer for all securities of TIP by exchanging for the same type of securities
of the Company at the swap ratio of one ordinary share of TIP per one ordinary share of the Company, TIP
will become the sole subsidiary who operates the core business of the Company. In case that the Company is
able to acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of the TIP, the financial position and operating
performance of the Company and its subsidiary will not be significantly different from the financial position and
operating performance of TIP prior to the shareholding and management restructuring.
Therefore, the Management Discussion and Analysis on the financial position and operating
performance of the Company will be based on the financial position and operating performance of TIP according
to its financial statements for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2018, 31 December 2019, and 31
December 2020, and for the three-month period ended on 31 March 2020 and 31 March 2021.
In this regard, the investors are advised to read the information from the Management Discussion
and Analysis in this part, together with the information in “Section 1 Part 3.15 Financial Information” and the
financial statements of TIP and the relevant notes to the financial statements as enclosed in Enclosure 6 of
this Form 69/247-1.

TIP
3.16.1 Overview of operating performance and financial position
TIP is a company that engaged in the non-life insurance business and investment activities and its
revenue consists of four categories: (1) Net premium earned; (2) Fee and commission income; (3) Income and
gains on investments; and (4) Other income. TIP’s main source of revenues come from net premium earned,
which represented around 48 percent to 59 percent of the total revenues and consisted of four types of
insurance, namely, Fire Insurance, Marine and Cargo Insurance, Motor Insurance, and Miscellaneous Insurance
(Miscellaneous Insurance can be categorized into two main types: Personal Accident Insurance and Other
Miscellaneous Insurance). According to the revenue proportion from each type of insurance, the majority of
premium written was from Miscellaneous Insurance, which represented 71 percent to 75 percent of the total
premium written between 2018 and 2020, and approximately 70 percent to 72 percent of the total premium
written for the three-month period ended on 31 March 2020 and 2021, respectively.
TIP’s total revenues for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2019 was THB 10,546.09 million,
increased by THB 1,161.25 million or 12.37 percent from 2018, mainly due to an increase in net premium
earned as a result of an increase in direct premium written from Compulsory and Voluntary Motor Insurance,
Marine and Cargo Insurance, and Other Miscellaneous Insurance because TIP had a policy to emphasize the
expansion of new customer base, particularly retail customers, by means of launching various types of
insurance products in order to respond to the retail customers’ demands by expanding its omni channel services both on online and offline platforms through its company website, mobile applications, branch offices, and
business alliances. This policy includes the rapid consideration for underwriting and provision of claims services
in order to meet customers’ needs in the digital age and expand its corporate customer base with its
Full-Service Solutions.
TIP’s total revenues for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2020 was THB 12,740.86 million,
increased by THB 2,194.77 million or 20.81 percent from 2019, mainly due to (1) an increase in net premium
earned because TIP was the first company to launch the Coronavirus (2019-nCov) insurance
(the “COVID-19 Insurance”) in the first quarter of 2020 in all distribution channels, including online and offline
platforms, with positive feedback, and (2) an increase in fee and commission income primarily attributable to
the increased ceded premium with respect to the increased premium written from the COVID-19 insurance.
TIP’s total revenues for the three-month period ended on 31 March 2021 was THB 3,368.53 million,
increased by THB 365.72 million or 12.8 percent from the same period of 2020, mainly due to (1) an increase
in net premium earned, the majority of which was the direct premium written from Personal Accident Insurance
as a result of customers in the personal accident programs who took out and renewed insurances, coupled
with the premium written from Other Miscellaneous Insurance and Voluntary Motor Insurance, due to the TIP’s
implementation of strategies which focused on direct sales especially through online channels and provision of
full services to customers, resulting in gaining trust from corporate and retail customers, and (2) an increase in
income and gains on investments which was attributable to an increase in gains from sales of equity instruments
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 3.16 Page 3
and dividends received, with the majority being dividends received from equity instruments and infrastructure
funds that TIP invested in.
TIP’s net profit for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2019 was THB 1,863.19 million, increased
by THB 332.03 million or 21.68 percent from 2018, mainly due to an increase in premium written from
Compulsory and Voluntary Motor Insurance, Marine and Cargo Insurance, and Other Miscellaneous Insurance.
TIP’s net profit for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2020 was THB 2,064.87 million, increased
by THB 201.68 million or 10.82 percent from 2019, mainly due to an increase in direct premium written from
the COVID-19 Insurance and the continued growth from TIP’s policy which focused on the retail customers of
Motor Insurance, net of an increase in other expenses with respect to the increased premium written.
TIP’s net profit for the three-month period ended on 31 March 2021 was THB 638.28 million,
increased by THB 110.73 million or 20.99 percent from the same period of 2020, mainly due to (1) an increase
in direct premium written from Personal Accident Insurance, Other Miscellaneous Insurance, and Voluntary
Motor Insurance, and (2) an increase in income and gains on investments according to the
above-mentioned reasons.
TIP’s total assets as at 31 December 2018, 2019, 2020, and 31 March 2021 were THB 44,960.87

of 2019 as compared to the end of 2018, TIP’s total assets decreased by THB 4,060.56 million or 9.03 percent
from 2018, mainly due to (1) a decrease in net reinsurance assets which were primarily attributable to the
declined loss reserve to be recovered from reinsurance companies, (2) a decrease in net prepaid reinsurance
premium from the gradual recognition of prepaid reinsurance premium of Personal Accident Insurance with
more than 1-year coverage as ceded premium, and (3) a decrease in net investment in securities as a result
of the decrease in the fair value of TIP’s investment.
As at 31 December 2020, TIP’s total assets were THB 44,472.23 million, increased by THB 3,571.92
million or 8.73 percent from the end of 2019, mainly due to (1) an increase in net reinsurance assets which
were primarily attributable to the increased loss reserve to be recovered from reinsurance companies, and (2)
an increase in cash and cash equivalents with the majority being from the increased payment of insurance
premiums from customers and TIP invested such cash in short-term debt instruments in accordance with its
investment policies as to be in line with the economic condition.
As at 31 March 2021, TIP’s total assets were THB 47,382.98 million, increased by THB 2,910.75 million or 6.55 percent from the end of 2020, mainly due to (1) an increase in net investment in securities as a
result of an increase in new investments with respect to the increase in cash flow from operations, coupled
with an increase in the value of equity instruments in TIP’s investment portfolio with respect to an increase in
the SET Index since the beginning of 2021; (2) an increase in net amounts due from reinsurance primarily
attributable to an increase in loss due from reinsurance with the majority being the insurance claims where the
damages have been agreed but not yet charged from other reinsurers; and (3) an increase in net premium
receivables as a result of an increase in premium written overdue less than 30 days and overdue more than
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 3.16 Page 4

corporate clients.

of 2019 as compared to the end of 2018, TIP’s total liabilities decreased by THB 4,745.32 million or 12.73
percent from the end of 2018, mainly due to (1) a decrease in premium received in advance from the gradual
recognition of long-term premium received in advance as premium written; and (2) a decrease in insurance
contract liabilities as a result of a decrease in loss reserve according to the reported information, net of an
increase in unearned premium reserve.
As at 31 December 2020, TIP’s total liabilities were THB 36,029.05 million, increased by THB
3,486.30 million or 10.71 percent from the end of 2019, mainly due to (1) an increase in insurance contract
liabilities primarily attributable to an increase in loss reserve of Other Miscellaneous Insurance as a result of
damages incurred to assets of the insured person and the contractual obligations under the COVID-19
Insurance; and (2) an increase in due to reinsurers which was attributable to an increase in ceded premium as
a result of the increased reinsurance for Voluntary Motor Insurance, Other Miscellaneous Insurance, Personal
Accident Insurance, and COVID-19 Insurance.
As at 31 March 2021, TIP’s total liabilities were THB 38,046.18 million, increased by THB 2,017.13 million or 5.60 percent from the end of 2020, mainly due to an increase in due to reinsurers which was

increased by THB 1,324.42 million or 6.45 percent from 2018, mainly due to an increase in direct premium
written from Compulsory and Voluntary Motor Insurance, Marine Insurance, and Other Miscellaneous Insurance
with the growth rate of 42.02 percent, 40.74 percent, and 7.12 percent, respectively, as a result of (1) TIP’s
emphasis on continuous expansion of insurance premiums in the retail customers with its omni channel services
both on online and offline platforms through its company website, mobile applications, branch offices, and
business alliances, as well as launch of diverse types of insurance products to be in line with the lifestyles,
rapid consideration for underwriting and provision of claims services in order to meet customers needs in the
digital age; and (2) TIP’s expansion of insurance business for the corporate customers from both public and
private sectors with Full-Service Solutions, providing advice on business risk management and claim
management service in the case of accidents. With respect to Fire Insurance, TIP was affected by the
supervisory measures for housing loans and other housing-related loans (Loan-to-Value: LTV) issued by the
government, resulting in a decrease in premium written for the Fire Insurance of 9.35 percent from 2018.
TIP’s premium written for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2020 was THB 25,398.53 million,
increased by THB 3,552.28 million or 16.26 percent from 2019, with one of the primary reason being due to
an increase in direct premium written from Health (Miscellaneous) Insurance because TIP was the first company
in Thailand’s insurance industry to launched the COVID-19 Insurance and, therefore, generated the highest
direct premium written for the COVID-19 insurance coverage in the non-life insurance industry in Thailand
which represented 7.61 percent of the total premium written for Miscellaneous Insurance in 2020. In addition,
TIP adopted digital technology in its online transactions for the whole insurance value chain to be in accordance
with the New Normal lifestyle and social distancing measures. TIP developed its digital system to support
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited

innovations and develop products and services that meet its customers’ needs. These measures enabled TIP
to expand its customer base more extensively for the retail and corporate customers. In addition to the increased
premium written for Health Insurance, TIP’s premium written for Motor Insurance, Marine Insurance,
Miscellaneous Insurance, and Fire Insurance recorded growth rate of 18.42 pecent, 18.34 percent, 16.75
percent and 6.53 percent, respectively. However, Personal Accident Insurance was affected by lower

insurance products with coverage related to these businesses, resulting in a decrease in premium written for
Personal Accident Insrance at 9.31 percent from the previous year.
TIP’s premium written for the three-month period ended on 31 March 2021 was THB 6,908.03
million, increase by THB 804.58 million or 13.18 percent from the same period of 2020, mainly due to an
increase in direct premium written from Personal Accident Insurance as a result of customers in the personal
accident projects who took out and renewed insurances, coupled with the premium written from Other

focused on direct sales through online channels and provision of comprehensive services to customers,

and insurance risks as announced by the OIC; (3) the dividend payment in April and September; (4) the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic which caused an increase in unrealized losses from investment; (5) an increase in
deferred tax assets; (6) an increase of risk assets in investment portfolio to enhance profitability; and (7) the
expansion of TIP’s insurance business in which the increased premium written resulted in the increased
estimation of loss reserves and premium reserves.
The capital adequacy ratio (CAR Ratio) under the RBC 2 standards at the end of the first quarter
of 2021 was at 254.68 percent, a level close to 260.04 percent at the end of 2020, mainly due to the net result
of (1) an increase in operating profit; (2) an increase of risk assets in investment portfolio; (3) an increase in
estimation of loss reserves and premium reserves; and (4) a decrease in asset value of equity instruments of
insurance companies in accordance with the OIC’s relevant notifications.
(4) Dividend payout ratio
The dividend payout ratio for the fiscal year ended on 31 December 2018, 2019, and 2020 were at
54.86 percent, 51.52 percent, and 52.30 percent, respectively. However, for the three-month period ended on
31 March 2021, TIP did not paid dividends to its shareholders, thereby the dividend payout ratio could not be
calculated.
The dividend payout ratio decreased from 54.86 percent in 2018 to 51.52 percent in 2019, mainly
due to an increase in net profit in a proportion higher than an increase in dividend payment to TIP’s
shareholders.
The dividend payout ratio increased from 51.52 percent in 2019 to 52.30 percent in 2020, mainly
due to an increase in dividend payment to TIP’s shareholders in a proportion higher than an increase in net
profit.

4. Potential Impacts from Shareholding and Management Restructuring
4.1 Opinion of the Board of Directors of the Securities Issuer
4.1.1 Impact on financial position and operating performance of the Company
Financial position and operating performance based on current financial statements of the Company
Since the Company was incorporated on 31 July 2020 to accommodate the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan of TIP and still does not hold TIP’s share, as a result, the Company currently
has no substantial financial position and operating performance.
Impacts from the shareholding and management restructuring on the Company’s financial position and
operating performance based on the financial statements of the Company upon the successful of
shareholding and management restructuring
Accounting impacts on the consolidated financial statements of the securities issuer
In order for the investors to clearly understand the preliminary impacts after the shareholding and
management restructuring, the Company therefore illustrates the pro-forma financial information which is
prepared under the accounting practice for business combination of entities under common control that reflects
the Company’s 12-month operating performance and includes TIP’s 12-month operating performance (From 1 January 2019 until 31 December 2019) as if the Company’s was incorporated and was a shareholder of TIP
since 1 January 2019 by providing examples for the understanding of shareholders, which can be considered
into two cases including (A) all of the shareholders of TIP exchange their shares for the Company’s shares
and (B) 75.00 percent of the shareholders of TIP exchange their shares for the Company’s shares respectively.
From the aforementioned assumptions, upon the successful of shareholding and management restructuring,
the impacts on financial position and operating performance of the Company from the shareholding and
management restructuring can be considered in 2 cases as follows:
Case 1: The Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP
In case that the Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP, the financial position and operating performance of the Company and its subsidiary will have no significant
differences from the financial position and operating performance of TIP prior to the shareholding and
management restructuring.
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 4.1 Page 2
Case 2: The Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP
In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP, the Company will recognize the financial position and operating performance of TIP in proportion to its
shareholding in TIP. For instance, if the Company can acquire 75 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP, the Company will recognize 75 percent of the financial position and operating performance of TIP.
(Please see the details in Table 1 - Summary table of the significant impacts on the financial position
and operating performance of the Company and Table 2 - The pro-forma financial information).
Taxation impact
This shareholding and management restructuring will not cause any tax impact to the Company
since it is the restructuring which affect only at shareholders’ level. However, after the delisting of shares of
TIP from the SET, TIP may be affected by the indirect tax impact since TIP will not receive any tax privileges
as the listed companies may receive in the future (if any).
Impacts from the shareholding and management restructuring on the Company’s financial position and
operating performance based on the financial statements of the Company upon the unsuccessful of
shareholding and management restructuring
In case that the shareholding and management restructuring is not success, the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan will be canceled and the Company will not become the major shareholder of
TIP and the Company’s securities will not be listed on the SET. Meanwhile, TIP’s securities will still be listed
on the SET. As a result, the Company’s financial position and operating performance will not change from its current status.
4.1.2 Impacts on the financial position and operating performance of TIP
Financial position and operating performance based on current financial statements of TIP
In accordance with the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, the Company will make
a tender offer for all securities of TIP, by issuing and offering newly issued securities of the Company in
exchange for the securities of TIP which are held by the shareholders of TIP. Under the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan, there will be no impact on TIP’s financial position and operating performance
since it is the restructuring of shareholding and management which affect only at shareholders’ level.
However, the Company may change the group structure in the future, to adapt to the business and
legal environment, and for the best interest of shareholders. Nevertheless, if there is any action in the future,
the Company and TIP will emphasize transparency in accordance with the good corporate governance
guidelines, with due regard to compliance with laws and regulations of the SEC, the SET and other relevant
regulatory authorities.

Impacts from the restructuring on TIP’s financial position and operating performance based on the
financial statements of TIP upon the successful of shareholding and management restructuring
Accounting impact on the consolidated financial statements of TIP
Under the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, there will be no impact on the financial
position of TIP since it is the shareholding and management restructuring which affect only at shareholders’

Taxation impact
Under the shareholding and management restructuring, there will be no tax impact to TIP since it is
the restructuring which affect only at shareholders’ level. However, after the delisting of ordinary shares of TIP
from the SET, TIP may be affected by the indirect tax impact since TIP will not receive any tax privileges as
the listed companies may receive in the future (if any).
Impacts from the restructuring on TIP’s financial position and operating performance based on the
financial statements of TIP upon the unsuccessful of shareholding and management restructuring
In case that the shareholding and management restructuring is not success, the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan will be canceled and the shareholders of TIP will still hold TIP’s share. TIP’s
securities will still be listed on the SET and the financial position and operating performance based on the
financial statements of TIP will not changes from its current status.
4.1.3 Other impacts on the shareholders of TIP
The impacts on the shareholders of TIP can be categorized into 2 groups including the group of
shareholders who choose to exchange their shares and the group of shareholders choose not to exchange
their shares as the following details:
Shareholders of TIP who choose to exchange TIP’s share for the Company’s share
In case that the Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP, there will be no impact to the shareholders of TIP, since after the shareholding and management
restructuring, the shareholders of TIP will become the shareholders of the Company which will still operate
under the same scope of business operation, financial position, and operating performance as TIP prior to the
shareholding and management restructuring, as the Company has not yet started its new business.
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 4.1 Page 4
In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP, the Company will recognize the financial performance of TIP in proportion to its shareholding while the
newly issued shares of the Company will be proportionately decrease.
In addition, there will be no tax obligation to TIP resulting from the share swap transactions.
Nonetheless, the tax obligation of shareholders resulting from the share swap transactions, under which
shareholders will transfer their shares in TIP to the Company and received shares of the Company in return at
the ratio of one ordinary share of TIP per one newly issued share of the Company, will be in accordance with
the Revenue Code.
If the shareholding and management restructuring is success, the shareholders of TIP will become
the shareholders of the Company, therefore they will not be able to directly exercise their voting rights as a
shareholder in the matters relating to TIP. However, the Company has already set a mechanism for the
operational governance through the Article of Association of the Company and its subsidiary, Governance and
Management of Subsidiaries and Associated Companies Policy, and other related policies in order for the
Company to be able to fully govern TIP and its subsidiaries and/or the associates in the future. Pursuant to the
Extraordinary General Meetings of Shareholders No.1/2020 of TIP on 1 September 2019, TIP had already
approved the amendment of its Article of Association to accommodate the aforementioned governance
guidelines.
In addition, the SET will accept the ordinary shares of the Company to become listed on the SET
in place of the ordinary shares of TIP that will be delisted from the SET on the same day on the conditions
that the Company shall meet the criteria for listing of ordinary shares as listed securities, including the number
of ordinary shares of TIP held by the Company after the completion of tender offer will cause TIP to become
a subsidiary that operates core business of the Company pursuant to the rules prescribed in the regulation of
the SET Re: Listing of Ordinary Shares or Preferred Shares as Listed Securities B.E. 2558 (2015), including
any amendment thereto.
Shareholders of TIP who choose not to exchange TIP’s share for the Company’s share
Although the Company is desirous for the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan to
successfully achieve the maximum benefit whereby all shareholders of TIP shall become the shareholders of
the Company and will exercise its best endeavor to urge the Shareholding and Management Restructuring
Plan to become successful, the shareholders of TIP have the option as to whether or not to accept this tender
offer. In case that the SET accept the ordinary shares of the Company to become listed on the SET in place
of the ordinary shares of TIP that will be delisted from the SET, shareholders who choose not to exchange
their shares will still be the shareholders of TIP. If the Company can acquire TIP’s share less than 100 percent,
shareholders who choose not to exchange their shares may be affects as follows:
(1) TIP’s shares will have no reference market price. Shareholders who choose not to exchange
their shares will suffer from a lack of trading liquidity, and the opportunity to receive a capital
gain from trading these shares will be limited.
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Section 1 Part 4.1 Page 5
(2) When share in TIP are sold, individual shareholders will be subject to capital gain tax that is
exempted when the shares are listed securities on the SET. Furthermore, individual and juristic
person will be subject to stamp duty on the sale of these shares, which is exempted when the
shares are listed securities on the SET and have Thailand Securities Depository Co., Ltd. as
the registrar.
(3) Shareholders will have less access to news or information of TIP, compared to when these
shares are listed securities on the SET.
Nonetheless, after this shareholding and management restructuring, TIP’s information
disclosure may become part of the Company’s information disclosure as a subsidiary which
operates the core business of the Company. Moreover, TIP is still the public limited company,
therefore the shareholders of TIP will still able to receive the news and information that TIP
shall disclose according to the Public Limited Companies Act, B.E. 2535 (1992) (as amended)
including information disclose in the shareholder’s meeting and the annual report of TIP that
will be distributed to the shareholders on an annual basis. The shareholders can also request
for a copy of important corporate documents of TIP including affidavit, list of shareholders, and
financial statements from the Department of Business Development, Ministry of Commerce.
(4) In case the Company starts a new business, shareholders who choose not to exchange their
shares will not have an opportunity to receive the dividends from the operating results of the
new business.
(5) If the Company can acquire 50 percent or more of the total issued and paid-up shares of TIP,
the Company will assume control and has the decision-making power in various matters which
required a resolution from the shareholder’s meeting with a majority vote. Also, if the Company
can acquire 75 percent or more of the total issued and paid-up shares of TIP, the Company will
assume control and has the decision-making power in almost all matters, whereby other
shareholders of TIP will not have enough votes to counterbalance any agendas brought forward
by the Company.

Restructuring Plan of TIP including the delisting of TIP’s share from the SET, which is the procedure under the
Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan of TIP in order to list the Company’s share on the SET in
place of TIP’s shares, are appropriate since such procedures will help TIP to be able to efficiently proceed with
its strategic plan. In addition, the company group will be able to increase the business competitiveness, flexibility

risks. Moreover, this will enhance efficiency and flexibility of the organization’s management structure to be
suitable for the operations of respective business groups.

the Company is the appropriate swap ratio and causes no disadvantages to shareholders. Since after the
shareholding and management restructuring, the Company will have similar financial position and operating
performance to TIP’s and the shares of the Company and TIP will have equivalent privileges both in the form
of dividend and voting rights in material agendas regarding business operation.
Based on all of the above reasons, financial advisor views that the shareholders of TIP should

to the financial position and operating performance of TIP prior to the shareholding and
management restructuring (not including fees and expenses that may arise from the

Opinion of the Board of Director of Securities Issuer
1. Impact on financial position and operating performance of the Company
Financial position and operating performance based on current financial statements of the Company
Since the Company was incorporated on 31 July 2020 to accommodate the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan of TIP and still does not hold TIP’s share, as a result, the Company currently
has no substantial financial position and operating performance.
Impacts from the shareholding and management restructuring on the Company’s financial position and
operating performance based on the financial statements of the Company upon the successful of
shareholding and management restructuring
Accounting impacts on the consolidated financial statements of the securities issuer
In order for the investors to clearly understand the preliminary impacts after the shareholding and
management restructuring, the Company therefore illustrates the pro-forma financial information which is
prepared under the accounting practice for business combination of entities under common control that reflects
the Company’s 12-month operating performance and includes TIP’s 12-month operating performance (From 1
January 2019 until 31 December 2019) as if the Company’s was incorporated and was a shareholder of TIP
since 1 January 2019 by providing examples for the understanding of shareholders, which can be considered
into two cases including (A) all of the shareholders of TIP exchange their shares for the Company’s shares
and (B) 75.00 percent of the shareholders of TIP exchange their shares for the Company’s shares respectively.
From the aforementioned assumptions, upon the successful of shareholding and management restructuring,
the impacts on financial position and operating performance of the Company from the shareholding and
management restructuring can be considered in 2 cases as follows:
Case 1: The Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP
In case that the Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP, the financial position and operating performance of the Company and its subsidiary will have no significant
differences from the financial position and operating performance of TIP prior to the shareholding and
management restructuring.
Case 2: The Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP
In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP, the Company will recognize the financial position and operating performance of TIP in proportion to its
shareholding in TIP. For instance, if the Company can acquire 75 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP, the Company will recognize 75 percent of the financial position and operating performance of TIP.

Enclosure 4 Opinion of the Board of Directors on the Impacts from the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Page 2
(Please see the details in Table 1 - Summary table of the significant impacts on the financial position
and operating performance of the Company and Table 2 - The pro-forma financial information)
Taxation impact
This shareholding and management restructuring will not cause any tax impact to the Company
since it is the restructuring which affect only at shareholders’ level. However, after the delisting of shares of
TIP from the SET, TIP may be affected by the indirect tax impact since TIP will not receive any tax privileges
as the listed companies may receive in the future (if any).
Impacts from the shareholding and management restructuring on the Company’s financial position and
operating performance based on the financial statements of the Company upon the unsuccessful of
shareholding and management restructuring
In case that the shareholding and management restructuring is not success, the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan will be canceled and the Company will not become the major shareholder of
TIP and the Company’s securities will not be listed on the SET. Meanwhile, TIP’s securities will still be listed
on the SET. As a result, the Company’s financial position and operating performance will not change from its
current status.
2. Impacts on the financial position and operating performance of TIP
Financial position and operating performance based on current financial statements of TIP
In accordance with the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, the Company will make
a tender offer for all securities of TIP, by issuing and offering newly issued securities of the Company in
exchange for the securities of TIP which are held by the shareholders of TIP. Under the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan, there will be no impact on TIP’s financial position and operating performance
since it is the restructuring of shareholding and management which affect only at shareholders’ level.
However, the Company may change the group structure in the future, to adapt to the business and
legal environment, and for the best interest of shareholders. Nevertheless, if there is any action in the future,
the Company and TIP will emphasize transparency in accordance with the good corporate governance
guidelines, with due regard to compliance with laws and regulations of the SEC, the SET and other relevant
regulatory authorities.
In addition, investors can study the information of the financial position and operating performance
of TIP in Section 1 Part 3.15 Financial Information and Section 1 Part 3.16 Management Discussion and
Analysis in the registration statement for securities offering together with tender offer for the securities (Form 69/247-1).

Accounting impact on the consolidated financial statements of TIP
Under the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, there will be no impact on the
financial position of TIP since it is the shareholding and management restructuring which affect only at
shareholders’ level.
Taxation impact
Under the shareholding and management restructuring, there will be no tax impact to TIP since it
is the restructuring which affect only at shareholders’ level. However, after the delisting of ordinary shares of
TIP from the SET, TIP may be affected by the indirect tax impact since TIP will not receive any tax privileges
as the listed companies may receive in the future (if any).
Impacts from the restructuring on TIP’s financial position and operating performance based on the
financial statements of TIP upon the unsuccessful of shareholding and management restructuring
In case that the shareholding and management restructuring is not success, the Shareholding and
Management Restructuring Plan will be canceled and the shareholders of TIP will still hold TIP’s share. TIP’s
securities will still be listed on the SET and the financial position and operating performance based on the
financial statements of TIP will not changes from its current status.
3. Other impacts on the shareholders of TIP
The impacts on the shareholders of TIP can be categorized into 2 groups including the group of
shareholders who choose to exchange their shares and the group of shareholders choose not to exchange
their shares as the following details:
Shareholders of TIP who choose to exchange TIP’s share for the Company’s share
In case that the Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP, there will be no impact to the shareholders of TIP, since after the shareholding and management
restructuring, the shareholders of TIP will become the shareholders of the Company which will still operate
under the same scope of business operation, financial position, and operating performance as TIP prior to the
shareholding and management restructuring, as the Company has not yet started its new business.
In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital
of TIP, the Company will recognize the financial performance of TIP in proportion to its shareholding while the
newly issued shares of the Company will be proportionately decrease.
In addition, there will be no tax obligation to TIP resulting from the share swap transactions.
Nonetheless, the tax obligation of shareholders resulting from the share swap transactions, under which
shareholders will transfer their shares in TIP to the Company and received shares of the Company in return at
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Enclosure 4 Opinion of the Board of Directors on the Impacts from the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Page 4
the ratio of one ordinary share of TIP per one newly issued share of the Company, will be in accordance with
the Revenue Code.
If the shareholding and management restructuring is success, the shareholders of TIP will become
the shareholders of the Company, therefore they will not be able to directly exercise their voting rights as a
shareholder in the matters relating to TIP. However, the Company has already set a mechanism for the
operational governance through the Article of Association of the Company and its subsidiary, Governance and
Management of Subsidiaries and Associate Companies Policy, and other related policies in order for the
Company to be able to fully govern TIP and its subsidiaries and/or the associate companies in the future. Pursuant to the Extraordinary General Meetings of Shareholders No.1/2020 of TIP on 1 September 2020, TIP
had already approved the amendment of its Article of Association to accommodate the aforementioned
governance guidelines.
In addition, the SET will accept the ordinary shares of the Company to become listed on the SET
in place of the ordinary shares of TIP that will be delisted from the SET on the same day on the conditions
that the Company shall meet the criteria for listing of ordinary shares as listed securities, including the number
of ordinary shares of TIP held by the Company after the completion of tender offer will cause TIP to become
a subsidiary that operates core business of the Company pursuant to the rules prescribed in the regulation of
the SET Re: Listing of Ordinary Shares or Preferred Shares as Listed Securities B.E. 2558 (2015), including
any amendment thereto.
Moreover, the Company has prepared the article of association and policies to cover the matters as
follows:
(1) The Company shall delegate its representative directors or executives to be the directors or
executives of its subsidiaries and/or associate companies at least proportionately to its
shareholding percentage and the delegation of these representatives shall be obtained an
approval from the board of directors of the Company.
(2) The scope of duties and responsibilities of the directors and executives as appointed in (1) shall
be clearly defined and covered the following matters:
Clearly determine the authorization of the appointed directors or executives, whereby their consideration in voting in the board of directors’ meeting of the subsidiaries and/or a s s o c i a t e companies that are materially important must be approved by the board of
directors’ meeting or the shareholders meeting of the Company (as the case may be).
Monitor the core business subsidiaries and/or the core business associate companies in the disclosure of the financial position and operating performance , related party
transactions, and significant disposal or acquisition of asset.
M o n i t o r the directors and executives of the subsidiaries and/or associate companies to
comply with the duties and responsibilities as required by laws.
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Enclosure 4 Opinion of the Board of Directors on the Impacts from the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Page 5
(3) Governance mechanisms is in place, requiring that transactions between the subsidiaries and/or
associate companies and related persons, as well as asset acquisition or disposal transactions,
or any other material transactions of the subsidiaries and/or associate companies be approved
by a board of directors meeting or shareholders meeting of the Company (as the case may be).
These transactions of the subsidiaries and/or associate companies must be considered in a
similar manner to transactions of the same nature and size of the Company, which must be
approved by a board of directors’ meeting or shareholders’ meeting of the Company (as the
case may be).
Shareholders of TIP who choose not to exchange TIP’s share for the Company’s share
Although the Company is desirous for the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan to
successfully achieve the maximum benefit whereby all shareholders of TIP shall become the shareholders of
the Company and will exercise its best endeavor to urge the Shareholding and Management Restructuring
Plan to become successful, the shareholders of TIP have the option as to whether or not to accept this tender
offer. In case that the SET accept the ordinary shares of the Company to become listed on the SET in place
of the ordinary shares of TIP that will be delisted from the SET, shareholders who choose not to exchange
their shares will still be the shareholders of TIP. If the Company can acquire TIP’s share less than 100 percent,
shareholders who choose not to exchange their shares may be affects as follows:
(1) Since TIP’s shares will be delisted from the SET after the shareholding and management
restructuring. As a result, TIP’s share will have no reference market price and shareholders who
choose not to exchange their shares will suffer from a lack of trading liquidity, and the
opportunity to receive a capital gain from trading these shares will be limited.
(2) When shares in TIP are sold, individual shareholders will be subject to capital gain tax that is
exempted when the shares are listed securities on the SET. Furthermore, individual and juristic
person will be subject to stamp duty on the sale of these shares, which is exempted when the
shares are listed securities on the SET and have Thailand Securities Depository Co., Ltd. as
the registrar.
(3) Shareholders will have less access to news or information of TIP compared to when these
shares are listed securities on the SET, after TIP’s shares are delisted from the SET, TIP will
not be required to comply with the SET Notification Re: Guidelines on Disclosure of Information
of Listed Companies. Furthermore, after the securities offering together with tender offer, if there
are other shareholders apart from the Company, parties acting in concert with the Company,
and persons under Section 258 of the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992) including
any amendment thereto, of the Company holding shares in TIP in aggregate of not more than
5 percent of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP will not have the duty to disclose its information
regarding the financial position and operating performance of the Securities Issuer according to
the Notification of the Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 44/2556 Re: Rules,
Conditions, and Procedures for Disclosure of Information regarding Financial Position and
Operating Performance of Securities Issuer, including any amendment thereto ( “ Notification
Dhipaya Group Holdings Public Company Limited
Enclosure 4 Opinion of the Board of Directors on the Impacts from the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Page 6
TorJor. 44/2556”), (in case that other shareholders holding shares in aggregate of more than 5
percent of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP may consider to request for a written consent from
all shareholders stating that they do not wish to obtain the information in accordance with
Notification TorJor. 44/2556) . Moreover, the directors, the executives, and the auditors of TIP
will no longer be required to prepare and disclose the report on changes in their securities and
derivatives holdings according to the Notification of the Office of the Securities and Exchange
Commission No. SorJor. 38/2561 Re: Preparation of Changes in the Securities and Derivatives
Holding by Directors, Executives, Auditors, Planners and Plan Administrators.
Moreover, pursuant to the Notification of Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 20/2558
Re: Characteristics of the Companies Exempted from Chapter 3/1 of the Securities and
Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992). After the securities offering together with tender offer for the
securities, if there are other shareholders apart from the Company and the related parties of
the Company (i.e. the parties acting in concert with the Company and persons under Section
258 of the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992), including any amendment thereto)
holding shares in TIP in aggregate of not more than 5 of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP and
its directors and executives will be exempted from provisions under Chapter 3/1 (Governance
of Publicly Traded Company) of the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992), including
any amendment thereto, and any notifications issued under the Chapter 3/1, which include (but
is not limited to) the Notification of Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 20/2551 Re:
Rules on Entering into Material Transactions Deemed as Acquisition or Disposal of Assets and
the Notification of Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 21/2551 Re: Rules on the Entry
into Connected Transactions ( in case that other shareholders holding shares in aggregate of
more than 5 percent of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP may consider to request for a written
consent from all shareholders stating that they do not wish to obtain the protection according
to Chapter 3/1 (Governance of Publicly Traded Company) of the Securities and Exchange Act
B.E. 2535 (1992), including any amendment thereto).
Nonetheless, after the shareholding and management restructuring, TIP’s information disclosure
may become part of the Company’s information disclosure as a subsidiary which operates the
core business of the Company. Moreover, TIP will still be the public limited company, therefore,
the shareholders of TIP will still be able to receive news and information that TIP shall disclose
according to the Public Limited Companies Act, B.E. 2535 (1992) and any amendment thereto,
including information disclose in the shareholder’s meeting and the annual report of TIP that

financial statements from the Department of Business Development, Ministry of Commerce.

(4) In case the Company starts a new business, shareholders who choose not to exchange their
shares will not have an opportunity to receive the dividends from the operating results of the
new business.
(5) If the Company can acquire 50 percent or more of the total issued and paid-up shares of TIP,
the Company will assume control and has the decision-making power in various matters which
required a resolution from the shareholder’s meeting with a majority vote. Also, if the Company
can acquire 75 percent or more of the total issued and paid-up shares of TIP, the Company will
assume control and has the decision-making power in almost all matters, whereby other
shareholders of TIP will not have enough votes to counterbalance any agendas brought forward

1. Transaction Overview
TIP has an intention to restructure the shareholding and management, and on 31 July 2020, TIP
has completed the incorporation of the holding company as a public limited company under the name “Dhipaya
Group Holdings Public Company Limited" to operate business by holding shares in other companies. The
Company will make a tender offer for all securities of TIP in exchange for the same type of securities of the
Company at the swap ratio of 1:1, which in this case means one ordinary share of TIP per one ordinary share
of the Company and after the completion of the tender offer, the ordinary shares of the Company will become
listed securities on the SET in place of the ordinary shares of TIP which will be delisted from the SET on the
same day. Nonetheless, the Company (Offeror) reserves the rights to cancel the tender offer upon the
occurrence of events or actions after the acceptance of the tender offer by Office of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) but before the end of the tender offer period, which cause or may cause severe
damage to the status or assets of TIP (the company offered to be tendered), where such events or actions are
not the results of the Company’s action or actions for which the Company is responsible or TIP engages in any
action after the acceptance of the tender offer by the SEC but before the end of the tender offer period, that
cause a dramatic decrease in the share value of TIP resulting in the failure to achieve the objectives of the
shareholding and management restructuring.
In addition, the number of TIP’s shares held by the Company, upon the completion of the tender
offer, must cause TIP to become a subsidiary that operates core business of the Company pursuant to the
rules prescribed in the Regulation of the SET Re: Listing of Ordinary Shares or Preferred Shares as Listed
Securities B.E. 2558 (2015), including any amendment thereto.
The Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan was granted a written preliminary approval
from the SET in accordance with SET Letter No. BorJor. 170/2564 dated 22 April 2021.

Shareholding Structure
Governance and Management Structure
After the shareholding and management restructuring, the governance and management structure
of the Company will largely be the same as that of TIP. Most of the directors of the Company and of TIP will
be the same group of persons, and will manage the businesses of the Company and TIP in tandem. The
Company and TIP will have the same number of directors and subcommittees, namely, the board of directors,
audit committee, executive committee, nomination, remuneration and human resources management
committee, investment committee, corporate governance committee, and risk management committee. With
respect to the governance and management, the board of directors and the subcommittees of the Company,
as the parent company, will oversee the non-life insurance business which is operated by TIP through its board
of directors, subcommittees, and Managing Director that are in charge of the management of the non-life
insurance business of TIP. At least one year after the shareholding and management restructuring, the Chief
Executive Officer (CEO), the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), and the Financial Controller of the Company will

The Board of Directors’ Meeting No. 11/2020 of TIP resolved to approve the renewal of the term of

of the accounting and finance of the Company and TIP after the shareholding and management restructuring
is under the supervision of the experienced person and that there will be sufficient time to pass on the working
experience and knowledge to the TIP’s CFO successor. The Company and TIP will review the matter relating
to the person in the position of their CFO once again before the completion of the term of office of the current
CFO and may consider appointing the current successor of CFO, or recruiting a third party who has appropriate
knowledge, experience, and qualifications for the position of CFO, or renewing the term of office of the current
CFO, as appropriate.

The Company and TIP will remain emphasis on efficient and transparent business management
according to the good corporate governance guidelines, with due regard to compliance with the laws and
regulations of the SEC, the SET, the Office of Insurance Commission (the “OIC”), and other relevant regulatory
authorities. The implementation relating to the shareholding and management restructuring of TIP is not in
violation of or contrary to the non-life insurance law and relevant rules of the OIC. TIP is only obliged to report
the change of shareholders in the specified form to the OIC.
In addition, to promote good governance of the future subsidiaries or associate companies, TIP
plans to put in place in the Company the Governance of the Subsidiaries and Associate companies policy and
mechanism, such as delegating its representatives at least proportionately to its shareholding proportion to act
as directors or executives of the subsidiaries and imposing the procedures or regulations requiring that approval
of these representatives be obtained from the board of directors of the Company. In addition, the scope of
duties and responsibilities of the directors and executives as appointed and will be clearly defined. Governance
mechanisms is also in place, requiring that transactions between the subsidiaries and related persons, as well
as asset acquisition or disposal transactions, or any other material transactions of the subsidiaries be approved
by a board of directors meeting or shareholders meeting of the Company. These transactions of the subsidiaries
must be considered in a similar manner to transactions of the same nature and size of the Company, which
must be approved by a board of directors’ meeting or shareholders’ meeting of the Company. This mechanism
may be specified in the Articles of Association and/or bylaws of the Company, the subsidiaries, and/or the
associate companies. The implementation of this mechanism in the future subsidiaries and/or associate
companies will be dependent upon the shareholding proportion of the Company and the approval by the future
partners.
With regard to the internal control system, the Company will establish its own audit department with
an annual auditing plan, which will determine the scope of inspection on various departments according to risk-
based approach, including the timing and guideline for correction that are found in the internal control report
on a regular basis. The Company will adopt TIP’s internal control system and risk management guideline to
ensure that the Company’s internal control system is sufficient, appropriate, and comply with the relevant rules
and regulations of the SEC and the SET.
However, in the long term when the Company significantly engages in various businesses, the
Company may consider seeking approval from its board of directors or shareholders’ meetings (as the case
may be) in order to adjust its governance and management structure in the future as necessary and appropriate.
However, although the Company commences its new business or changes its business plan, its operations will
remain subject to the business management policies as mentioned above.

1.4 The Tender Offer and the Delisting of TIP’s share from the SET
The Company will make a tender offer for the securities of TIP by offering for sale of the newly
issued securities of the Company in exchange for the securities of TIP as the following details:
Type and class of securities offered to purchase
Ordinary shares.
Swap ratio and price
The swap ratio is one ordinary share of TIP per 1 one newly issued share of the Company and the
share swap price will be equal to the cost of existing shares in TIP of the respective shareholders. However, the share swap price for the purpose of the accounting treatment for each shareholder may be different, which
will be in accordance with the accounting treatment and accounting standard applied to such shareholder. Since the share swap price is only for the accounting treatment purpose and under the internal accounting
operation of each shareholder and its auditor, which will have no impact to the swap ratio of 1:1 and to other
shareholders. Moreover, such operation does not oppose the proceeding of the Shareholding and Management
Restructuring Plan of TIP, which has been approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders
No.1/2020 and is complied with relevant laws and accounting standards that are applied to each shareholder.
Therefore, Government Savings Bank (“GSB”) will treat the item in accordance with internal accounting
operation of GSB, applying the closing price of TIP’s ordinary shares in the SET in the last day of the tender
offer period as the share swap price only for the accounting treatment purpose.

2. Opinions of the Financial Advisor
Opinions of the Financial Advisor on the appropriateness of the shareholding and management
restructuring and the assessment of impact of such shareholding and management restructuring on the benefits
of TIP’s shareholders, as well as the appropriateness of the swap price and swap ratio can be summarized as
follows:
2.1 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding and Management
Restructuring and the Impact on the Benefits of TIP’s Shareholders
2.1.1 Rationale and Appropriateness
The Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, which was approved by the Extraordinary
General Meeting of Shareholders No. 1/2020 of TIP, has stated that the objectives of the shareholding and
management restructuring are for TIP to achieve its main strategic plan with the rationales as follows:
(1) To increase the business competitiveness, flexibility for business expansion, and reduce
investment constraints
The shareholding and management restructuring to operate its business by holding shares in other
companies will enable the Company to invest by holding shares in other insurance-related
businesses. This will increase the business competitiveness and strengthen the Company’s
business, which may be conducted in the form of Strategic Alliance, Joint Venture, or Mergers and
Acquisitions.
In addition, the shareholding and management restructuring to operate its business in the form of a
holding company will increase its flexibility for expanding the insurance business, including other
businesses that are related to or support the insurance business, or other businesses that have
strategically significant to the business group and/or generate appropriate returns without affecting
TIP’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) due to the changes in the criteria regarding the maintenance
of the Risk Based Capital 2 (RBC2) that came into force on 31 December 2019.
At present, TIP operates the non-life insurance business under the supervision of the OIC. According
to the OIC’s Notification Re: Investment in Other Businesses by Non-Life Companies B.E. 2556
(2013), TIP may not hold shares in any other company in excess of 10 percent of its total issued
and paid-up equity instruments, except for holding equity instruments to engage in other businesses,
which must be in accordance with the conditions specified by the OIC. In addition, TIP may not
invest in domestic and overseas equity instruments in aggregate of more than 30 percent of its
investment assets and in equity instruments listed on the SET or a foreign stock exchange in excess
of 5 percent of its investment assets. Therefore, at present, TIP’s capability for business expansion
and investment is limited to a certain extent.

Enclosure 5 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan Page 10
(2) To explicitly limit and manage business risks
The restructuring of the business operation in the form of a holding company will help segregate
and limit the potential risks in each business line. Through its investment in new companies to
support new businesses that are related to insurance, the potential risks and effects from the
business operations will be limited to the Company, and will not affect TIP’s operation of the non-
life insurance business, which is currently its core business.
(3) To enhance the efficiency and flexibility of the organizational management structure to be
suitable for the operations of respective business groups
The shareholding and management restructuring in order to operate its business by holding shares
in other companies will enhance efficiency in the operations of the various business groups, as
described below:
1. The Company will be able to manage and utilize the available resources and expertise,
therefore, economies of scale will be achieved in the best interest of the respective business
groups. A shared service and R&D unit will be set up to provide support, such as information
technology services, accounting and finance services, personnel recruitment and development
services, and research and development services, to affiliated companies.
2. The organization structure that clearly segregates its business lines will enhance the
management efficiency. Each business group will be under the management of personnel who
have expertise in each type of business.
3. The shareholding and management restructuring in order to operate businesses by holding
shares in other companies will enable clear designation of the scope of duties and
responsibilities of personnel in each business line. For example, the Company’s executives will
have the duty to formulate policies for and manage the business group as a whole, and be
accountable for its overall operating results. This structure will also enable the segregation of
the financial positions and operating results of the respective businesses, thereby resulting in
increased efficiency, clarity, and transparency in the management, analysis, and evaluation of
the financial position and operating results of each business.
Since the restructuring from the Operating Company to be the company that operates business by
holding shares in other companies (Holding Company) will help increase the business competitiveness,
flexibility for business expansion, explicitly limit and manage business risks, and help limit the impact on the
non-life insurance business which is the current core business of TIP, as well as enhance the efficiency and
flexibility of the organizational management structure to be suitable for the operations of respective business
groups, Financial Advisor views that the shareholding and management restructuring is appropriate.

2.1.2 Impact on the Benefits of TIP’s Shareholders
2.1.2.1 Impact on the company
Impact on the benefits of TIP’s shareholders from shareholding and management restructuring in
the view of the impact on the company can be summarized as follows:
(1) Impact on TIP
In accordance with the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, the Company will make
a tender offer for all securities of TIP, by issuing and offering newly issued securities of the Company
in exchange for the securities of TIP which are held by the shareholders of TIP. Under the
Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, there will be no impact on TIP’s financial position
and operating performance since it is the restructuring of shareholding and management which
affect only at shareholders’ level.
Under the shareholding and management restructuring, there will be no tax impact to TIP. However,
after the delisting of ordinary shares of TIP from the SET, TIP may be affected by the indirect tax
impact since TIP will not receive any tax privileges as the listed companies may receive in the future
(if any).
However, the Company may change the group structure in the future, to adapt to the business and
legal environment, and for the best interest of shareholders. Nevertheless, if there is any action in
the future, the Company and TIP will emphasize transparency in accordance with the good corporate
governance guidelines, with due regard to compliance with laws and regulations of the SEC, the
SET and other relevant regulatory authorities.
(2) Impact on the Company
In case that the Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP, the financial position and operating performance of the Company and its subsidiary will have
no significant differences from the financial position and operating performance of TIP prior to the
shareholding and management restructuring. Since after the shareholding and management
restructuring, the shareholders of TIP will become the shareholders of the Company which will still
operate under the same scope of business operation, financial position, and operating performance
as TIP prior to the shareholding and management restructuring, as the Company has not yet started
its new business. In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of the total issued
and paid-up capital of TIP, the Company will recognize the financial position and operating
performance of TIP in proportion to its shareholding in TIP. For example, if the Company can acquire
75 percent of TIP’s total number of shares, the Company will recognize 75 percent of the financial
position and operating performance of TIP. The significant impacts to the financial position and
operating performance of the Company, under the assumption that the Company does not have any
revenues or expenses, can be summarized as the following table.
Dhipaya Group Holding Public Company Limited
Enclosure 5 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan Page 12
Issued and paid-up share capital 600 600 600 600 600 600
Number of share at the end of
accounting period (million shares) 600 600 600 600 600 600
Equity attributable to owners of
the Company 7,673 8,357 8,443 5,754 6,268 6,332
Non-controlling interest - - - 1,919 2,089 2,111
Total equity 7,673 8,357 8,443 7,673 8,357 8,443
Book value (THB/share) 12.79 13.93 14.07 12.79 13.93 14.07
Remark: This table illustrates the significant impact to the Company’s financial position and performance from the
shareholding and management restructuring in case that the Company can acquire 100 percent of TIP’s share
in comparison with in case that the Company can acquire 75 percent.
As shown above, net profit (loss) attributable to the parent company will reduce in proportion to the
Company’s shareholding in TIP after the completion of tender offer. However, this tender offer for
all securities of TIP in exchange for the Company’s ordinary shares at the swap ratio of one ordinary
share of TIP per one ordinary shares of the Company, the number of newly issued shares of the
Company will also reduce in proportion to the Company’s shareholding in TIP. Therefore, the
earnings (loss) per share of the Company in both cases will have the same value and equivalent to
the earnings per share of TIP prior to the shareholding and management restructuring.
Nonetheless, after the Company starts its investment in new business (which is a non-life insurance
related business), the Company will recognize the financial position and operating performance of
the new business according to the investment proportion of the Company while TIP will not recognize
the financial position and operating performance of such new businesses.
2.1.2.2 Impact on Shareholders
2.1.2.3 Impact on Shareholders who choose to exchange TIP’s shares for the Company’s shares
1. Financial position and operating performance
In case that the Company can fully acquire 100 percent of the total issued and paid-up capital of
TIP, there will be no impact to the shareholders of TIP since after the shareholding and management
restructuring, the shareholders of TIP will become the shareholders of the Company which will still
Dhipaya Group Holding Public Company Limited
Enclosure 5 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan Page 13
operate under the same scope of business operation, financial position, and operating performance
as TIP prior to the shareholding and management restructuring, as the Company has not yet started
its new business.
In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of TIP’s shares, the Company will
recognize the operating performance of TIP in proportion to its shareholding while the newly issued
shares of the Company will be proportionately decrease. Therefore, the earnings (loss) per share
of the Company in this case will have the same value and equivalent to the earnings per share of
TIP prior to the shareholding and management restructuring.
2. Dividend policy
The Company has a policy on the dividend payment of not less than 50 percent of the net profit
under the separate financial statements of the Company depending on the operating results,
financial position, investment plan, reserve for loan repayment, reserve funds for future investment or be used as working capital of the Company, conditions and restrictions as specified in loan
agreements, and other factors relating to the administration as the board of directors deems
appropriate. The dividend payments require approval from the board of directors and shareholders
of the Company (as the case may be). The Company has the dividend payout ratio of not less than
50 percent, same as the dividend payout ratio of TIP.
3. Governance mechanism to protect the interests of shareholders
If the shareholding and management restructuring is success, the shareholders of TIP will become
the shareholders of the Company, therefore they will not be able to directly exercise their voting
rights as a shareholder in the matters relating to TIP. However, the Company has already set a
mechanism for the operational governance through its Article of Association of the Company, Governance and Management of Subsidiaries and Associate Companies Policy, other related
policies in order for the Company to be able to fully govern TIP and its subsidiaries and/or the
associate companies in the future. Pursuant to the Extraordinary General Meetings of Shareholders
No.1/2020 of TIP on 1 September 2020, resolved to approve the amendment of Article of Association
of TIP and the Company has prepared its Article of Association and related policies to cover the
following matters:
(1) The Company shall delegate its representative directors or executives to be the directors or
executives of its subsidiaries and/or associate companies at least proportionately to its
shareholding percentage and the delegation of these representatives shall be obtained an
approval from the board of directors of the Company.
(2) The scope of duties and responsibilities of the directors and executives as appointed in (1)
shall be clearly defined and cover the following matters:
Dhipaya Group Holding Public Company Limited
Enclosure 5 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan Page 14
Clearly determin the authorization of the appointed directors or executives, whereby their consideration in voting in the board of directors’ meeting of the subsidiaries and/or a s s o c i a t e companies that are materially important must be approved by the board of
directors’ meeting or the shareholders meeting of the Company (as the case may be).
Monitor the core business subsidiaries and/or the core business associate companies in the disclosure of the financial position and operating performance , related party
transactions, and significant disposal or acquisition of asset.
M o n i t o r the directors and executives of the subsidiaries and/or associate companies to
comply with the duties and responsibilities as required by laws.
(3) Governance mechanisms is in place, requiring that transactions between the subsidiaries and/or
associate companies and related persons, as well as asset acquisition or disposal transactions,
or any other material transactions of the subsidiaries and/or associate companies to be
approved by a board of directors meeting or shareholders meeting of the Company (as the case
may be). These transactions of the subsidiaries and/or associate companies must be considered
in a similar manner to transactions of the same nature and size of the Company, which must
be approved by a board of directors’ meeting or shareholders’ meeting of the Company (as the
case may be).
4. Taxation Impact
The tax obligation of shareholders resulting from the share swap transactions, under which
shareholders will transfer their TIP’s share to the Company and receive the Company’s share in
return at the ratio of one ordinary share of TIP per one newly issued share of the Company will be
in accordance with the Revenue Code.
Impact on Shareholders who choose not to exchange TIP’s share for the Company’s share
In case that the Company can acquire less than 100 percent of TIP’s share, shareholders who choose not to exchange their shares will still be the shareholders of TIP. However, such
shareholders will be affected as follows:
1. Lack of liquidity in securities trading
Since TIP’s shares will be delisted from the SET after the shareholding and management
restructuring. As a result, TIP’s share will have no reference market price and shareholders who
choose not to exchange their shares will suffer from a lack of trading liquidity, and the
opportunity to receive a capital gain from trading these shares will be limited.
2. Losing tax benefits
When shares in TIP are sold, individual shareholders will be subject to capital gain tax that is
exempted when the shares are listed securities on the SET. Furthermore, individual and juristic
Dhipaya Group Holding Public Company Limited
Enclosure 5 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan Page 15
shareholders will also have to pay stamp duty on the sale of these shares, which is exempted
when the share are listed securities on the SET and have Thailand Securities Depository Co.,
Ltd. as the registrar.
3. Less access to news or information of TIP
Shareholders will have less access to news or information of TIP compared to when these
shares are listed securities on the SET, after TIP’s shares are delisted from the SET, TIP will
not be required to comply with the SET Notification Re: Guidelines on Disclosure of Information
of Listed Companies. Furthermore, after the securities offering together with tender offer, if there
are other shareholders apart from the Company, parties acting in concert with the Company,
and persons under Section 258 of the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992) including
any amendment thereto, of the Company holding shares in TIP in aggregate of not more than
5 percent of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP will not have the duty to disclose its information
regarding the financial position and operating performance of the Securities Issuer according to
the Notification of the Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 44/2556 Re: Rules,
Conditions, and Procedures for Disclosure of Information regarding Financial Position and
Operating Performance of Securities Issuer, including any amendment thereto ( “ Notification
TorJor. 44/2556”), (in case that other shareholders holding shares in aggregate of more than 5
percent of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP may consider to request for a written consent from
all shareholders stating that they do not wish to obtain the information in accordance with

will no longer be required to prepare and disclose the report on changes in their securities and
derivatives holdings according to the Notification of the Office of the Securities and Exchange
Commission No. SorJor. 38/2561 Re: Preparation of Changes in the Securities and Derivatives
Holding by Directors, Executives, Auditors, Planners and Plan Administrators.
Moreover, pursuant to the Notification of Capital Market Supervisory Board No. TorJor. 20/2558
Re: Characteristics of the Companies Exempted from Chapter 3/1 of the Securities and
Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992). After the securities offering together with tender offer for the
securities, if there are other shareholders apart from the Company and the related parties of
the Company (i.e. the parties acting in concert with the Company and persons under Section

holding shares in TIP in aggregate of not more than 5 of the total voting rights of TIP, TIP and
its directors and executives will be exempted from provisions under Chapter 3/1 (Governance

consent from all shareholders stating that they do not wish to obtain the protection according
to Chapter 3/1 (Governance of Publicly Traded Company) of the Securities and Exchange Act

Nonetheless, after the shareholding and management restructuring, TIP’s information disclosure
may become part of the Company’s information disclosure as a subsidiary which operates the
core business of the Company. Moreover, TIP will still be the public limited company, therefore,
the shareholders of TIP will still be able to receive news and information that TIP shall disclose
according to the Public Limited Companies Act, B.E. 2535 (1992) and any amendment thereto,
including information disclose in the shareholder’s meeting and the annual report of TIP that
will be distributed to the shareholders on an annual basis. The shareholders can also request
for a copy of important corporate documents of TIP including affidavit, list of shareholder, and
financial statements from the Department of Business Development, Ministry of Commerce.
4. Forgone the benefits that may receive from the operating results of the new business as
part of the Company investment
In case the Company starts a new business, shareholders who choose not to exchange their
shares will not have an opportunity to receive the dividends from the operating results of the
new business.
5. Balance of power between major shareholders after the shareholding and management
restructuring
If the Company can acquire 50 percent or more of the total issued and paid-up shares of TIP,
the Company will assume control and has the decision-making power in various matters which
required a resolution from the shareholder’s meeting with a majority vote. Also, if the Company
can acquire 75 percent or more of the total issued and paid-up shares of TIP, the Company will
assume control and has the decision-making power in almost all matters, whereby other
shareholders of TIP will not have enough votes to counterbalance any agendas brought forward
by the Company.

2.2 Opinion of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the swap price and swap ratio
Under the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan, the Company will make a tender offer
for all securities of TIP in exchange for the same type of securities of the Company at the swap ratio of 1:1,
which in this case means one ordinary share of TIP per one ordinary share of the Company. After the
completion of the tender offer, the ordinary shares of the Company will become listed securities on the SET in
place of the ordinary shares of TIP which will be delisted from the SET on the same day.
In case that the shareholding and management restructuring is success, the Company will be the
major shareholder of TIP and will recognize the financial position and operating performance of TIP in proportion
to its shareholding in TIP. In case that the Company can fully acquire all of TIP’s share, the financial position
and operating performance of the Company will have no significant differences from the financial position and
operating performance of TIP prior to the shareholding and management restructuring. Since the Company has
not yet started its own business. Despite the case that the Company cannot acquire all of TIP’s share, but
more than 50 percent, the Company will have earnings per share equivalent to the earnings per share of TIP
prior to the shareholding and management restructuring.
Considering the matters of dividends, the Company’s shareholders will have the rights to receive
dividends from the Company at the ratio of not less than 50 percent of the net profit under the separate financial
statements of the Company depending on the operating results, financial position, investment plan, reserve for
loan repayment, reserve funds for future investment or be used as working capital of the Company, conditions
and restrictions as specified in loan agreements, and other factors relating to the administration as the board
of directors deem appropriate. The dividend payments require approval from the board of directors and
shareholders of the Company (as the case may be) which is the policy that is comparable to the current
dividend policy of TIP, coupled with the financial position and operating performance of the Company will have
no significant differences from the financial position and operating performance of TIP. Therefore, it can be
considered that the Company’s shares are not inferior to TIP’s share at the present in terms of the rights to
receive dividends.
Moreover, after the shareholding and management restructuring, TIP will be the core business
subsidiary of the Company in which the shareholders of the Company can still exercise their voting rights in
the matters relating to TIP e.g. related party transaction between TIP and its related persons, disposal or
acquisition of asset, and any other significant transaction of TIP in accordance with the mechanism for operation
governance of subsidiaries and/or associate companies that the Company has taken action to be in place in
accordance with the relevant rules.
Based on all of the above reasons, Financial Advisor views that the swap ratio at one ordinary share
of TIP per one ordinary share of the Company with the swap price equal to the cost of existing shares in TIP
of the respective shareholders are appropriate and do not cause TIP’s shareholders to lose benefits from this
share swap transaction.

3. Summary of the Opinions of the Financial Advisor on the Appropriateness of the Shareholding
and Management Restructuring Plan and the Impact on the Benefits of Shareholders of TIP as
well as the Appropriateness of the swap price and swap ratio.
Financial Advisor opines that the Shareholding and Management Restructuring Plan of TIP including
the delisting of TIP’s share from the SET, which is the procedure under the Shareholding and Management
Restructuring Plan of TIP in order to list the Company’s share on the SET in place of TIP’s shares, are
appropriate since such procedures will help TIP to be able to efficiently proceed with its strategic plan. In
addition, the company group will be able to increase the business competitiveness, flexibility for business
expansion, and reduce investment constraints as well as explicitly limit and manage business risks. Moreover,
this will enhance efficiency and flexibility of the organization’s management structure to be suitable for the
operations of respective business groups.
Financial Advisor views that the swap ratio at one ordinary share of TIP per one ordinary share of
the Company is the appropriate swap ratio and causes no disadvantages to shareholders. Since after the
shareholding and management restructuring, the Company will have similar financial position and operating
performance to TIP’s and the shares of the Company and TIP will have equivalent privileges both in the form
of dividend and voting rights in material agendas regarding business operation.
Based on all of the above reasons, Financial Advisor views that the shareholders of TIP should
accept this tender offer. Nevertheless, whether or not to accept this tender offer based on judgement of the
shareholders. Shareholders should consider all information that is a part of Form 69/247-1 as well as other
information used in preparing this opinion of the financial advisor and must consider thoroughly prior to making
decisions.
