Agenda 2

To Acknowledge the Company's 2021 Operating Results

For operation result of the year 2021, after launching 19 new projects worth 22,540 million Baht, which divided into 15 low-rise projects in Bangkok and vicinity worth 12,340 million Baht, 2 projects in provincial region worth 2,300 million Baht and 2 condominium projects worth 7,900 million Baht. The Company's revenue in 2021 was 35,049 million Baht, a growth of 10.7% YoY thanks to the robust sales volume of the low-rise products which reached 32,841 million Baht, or a growth of +18.0% when compared to the previous year. Condominium projects recorded a sale volume of 2,208 million Baht.

For revenue in 2021, AP and subsidiaries recorded total revenue of 30,879 million Baht, a growth by +6.7%, with the gross profit margin 32.4%. Selling and administrative expense was 5,827 million Baht, a decline by 5.4% when compared to the previous year. Profit shares from joint ventures were 999 million Baht, with a net profit of 4,543 million Baht, or a growth by 7.5%, representing profit per share

1.44 Baht. Moreover, the Company's interest-bearing debt decreased by 20,758 million Baht to 19,306 million Baht. As a result, the net debt-to-equity ratio dropped from 0.71 time to 0.6 time, which was below the projected figure at 1.0 time.

Regarding annual plan for 2022, the Company plans to launch new 65 projects worth 78,000 million Baht, consisting of low-rise projects in Bangkok and vicinity 55 projects, another 5 projects in the provincial region and 5 condominium projects. The project launch will be during the second and third quarter of this year.

- 44 -

Attachment No. 4

policies and measures related to anti-corruption, including arranging activities to promote the anti- corruption as a practice guideline in business operation and develop the organization toward sustainability.

Mr. Anuphong asked the Shareholders if there were any question or comment.

Question:

Mr. Sutthi Klongmongkolkij (the proxy holder) inquired 'according to the launching

plan mentioned above, what is the forecast for feedback? Will all projects be

launched?

Despite of intense competition and Covid-10 situation, what contributes to positive

growth of AP, especially the low-rise project?

Answer:

Mr. Anuphong answered 'the Company plans to launch in total 65 projects. Now we

do not see any obstacle since we have acquired most of the land, only 5-6 plots

are pending. If the mission is completed within April - May, we will be able to launch

the project on time. However, we need to monitor the situation until the year end

and consider the overall matter. I am pretty confidence that we will launch all the

projects.

The positive and continual growth every year is contributed by many factors. The

most important is the continual branding for a decade. The budget for branding is

separated from marketing which aimed for project sales. The budget assigned is

approximately 300-500 million Baht per year. The campaign this year, you all

probably have seen from the GDH movie cast by Yaya Urussaya, as a main

character. The movie is a part of branding for the Company. As for the outcome,

I would like to set a solid example. The Company received Thailand's Most Admired

Brand for real estate category, for 3 consecutive years and remained in the Hall of

Fame of BrandAge magazine. That's why branding is very crucial.

Another factor is the internal management. Our internal management structure

consists of work process and teamwork that emphasis individual identity.

The Company pushes forward for decentralization of power, restructuring of the

organization, implementing new KPI which has been for 4-5 years. That is the

answer for AP positive performance every year.

None of the Shareholders raised any question or opinion; therefore, Mr. Pramart requested the Meeting to proceed to the next agenda and Mr. Phanporn Dabbaransi, Chairman of the Audit Committee will conduct the meeting.

Agenda 3To approve the audited financial statements of the Company as at 31st December 2021

Mr. Phanporn informed the Meeting that he has already declared the Company's operating result in 2021 to the Meeting and the annual reports and financial statements of the Company were already distributed to the Shareholders in advance.
