Prior Understanding on MITA Priority Facility Engagement

In appointing us as your customs & excise consultant who accompanying you for MITA Priority Facility,
prior understanding needs to be established:

1. There are certain provisions in the Indonesian Customs & Excise Regulations that are still subject to
various interpretations, and for which a definitive guideline has not been issued.

2. The structure, mechanism, and complexity of your business may be unique to the extent that it may
not yet be addressed in the current rules and regulations.

Given the understanding above, we will not be in a position to guarantee that the result of MITA Priority
Facility will be favorable to the Company. As such, you agree that you hold us harmless against any
