2. MATERIAL RISK FACTORS

Investors should carefully consider the risks and investment considerations, along with the other matters. The risks and investment considerations set forth below are not an exhaustive list of the challenges, which TFFIF and/or the Management Companies currently face or that may develop in the

Thailand Future Fund 5

Annual Report 2019

future which may have a material adverse effect on TFFIF, the Management Companies or on the future value of the Investment Units.

1. Risks relating to the Organisation, Structure and Management of TFFIF

1.1. TFFIF is a newly established entity without any revenue-generating operations or any other Infrastructure Assets of its own save for its investment in financial instruments and the right to the Transfer Revenue under the Revenue Transfer Agreement. When the transfer of contractual right to the Transfer Revenue becomes effective pursuant to the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the right to the Transfer Revenue will be the sole initial Infrastructure Asset of TFFIF.

1.2. TFFIF will be reliant on EXAT’s operation of the Initial Expressways and the collection and delivery of the Transfer Revenue to TFFIF, including the maintenance of the Expressways, as well as the ability to provide service and the collection of tolls, over which TFFIF will only have limited control. Moreover, the amount of Transfer Revenue from the Initial Expressways depends on a variety of factors such as procedure and consideration in the adjustment of toll rates, traffic management and the condition of the Initial Expressways. These factors are under the control of EXAT.

1.3. Inability to acquire new assets or generate new revenue streams would materially limit TFFIF’s operations and may materially and adversely affect TFFIF’s financial results and position and future prospects, and may result in the dissolution of TFFIF upon the termination or expiry of the Revenue Transfer Agreement. The value of the Initial Infrastructure Asset will decrease as the remaining term of the Revenue Transfer Agreement decreases. At the end of the Grant Period pursuant to the Revenue Transfer Agreement, if TFFIF does not acquire new assets or other revenue streams, the value of Investment Units could possibly be nil.

1.4. TFFIF may not have ownership over the future toll revenue transferred to it by EXAT pursuant to the Revenue Transfer Agreement in case such transfer is deemed to be a “sale for transfer of ownership” under Thai laws, and such revenue may be subject to claims by other creditors.

1.5. TFFIF and Unitholders are limited in their remedies against EXAT in the event of a breach of the Revenue Transfer Agreement or total loss caused to any of the Initial Expressways resulting from EXAT’s fault as under Thai law all of EXAT’s properties are not subject to an attachment or other forms of execution of legal judgment.

1.6. As a newly established entity, TFFIF has limited operating history and Unitholders have limited financial information in evaluating TFFIF and in making an investment decision.

1.7. The Management Companies may not be able to implement their investment strategies and may agree to amendments or modifications to the Revenue Transfer

Thailand Future Fund 6

Annual Report 2019

Agreement or grant waivers or consents without first obtaining consent from the Unitholders.

1.8. The Management Companies and TFFIF are not experienced in the operations of toll roads, and the Management Companies’ inability to manage TFFIF or EXAT’s inability to operate the Initial Expressways in an effective and efficient manner could have a material adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

1.9. TFFIF is subject to certain risks relating to the Revenue Transfer Agreement in case of breach of EXAT’s obligations under the Revenue Transfer Agreement or an event of default, or certain situations under which EXAT may be deemed not to be in breach under such obligations or not to be in default.

1.10. If EXAT repudiates or denies the validity or enforceability of the Revenue Transfer Agreement, or denies the binding effect of the Revenue Transfer Agreement on it, or if there are events that affect the status or capability of EXAT to perform its obligations under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, there could be a material adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

1.11. An increase in the VAT rate applicable to toll rates in Thailand that would raise the VAT in excess of 10.0% may decrease the amount of Transfer Revenue.

1.12. TFFIF may face repayment and refinancing risks with respect to any future debt and may not be able to obtain any required future financing on commercially acceptable terms or at all.

1.13. TFFIF’s rights and the rights of Unitholders to recover claims against the Management Companies and the Fund Supervisor are limited.

1.14. The Independent Appraisal Reports, any underlying Reports, and the NAV per Investment Unit of TFFIF are not opinions on the commercial merits of TFFIF or its business, nor are they opinions, expressed or implied, as to the future trading price of the Investment Units or the financial condition of TFFIF upon listing, and the valuation contained therein may not be indicative of the true value of TFFIF’s initial assets.

2. Risks relating to the Operations of the Initial Expressways

2.1. The right to the Transfer Revenue that TFFIF will acquire under the Revenue Transfer Agreement depends on the traffic volume of the Initial Expressways which may vary due to factors outside of EXAT’s control.

2.2. Any future revenue that TFFIF will receive depends on toll rates applicable on the Initial Expressways as well as any exemptions thereof whereby such toll rate adjustments or exemptions may depend on factors outside of EXAT’s control such as the requirements for EXAT to comply with Government policies by granting toll

Thailand Future Fund 7

Annual Report 2019

rate exemptions during New Year’s Day and the Thai Songkran festival or in cases of special events and the announcement of new toll rates by the Ministry of Transport as published in the Royal Gazette.

2.3. If motorists choose alternative roads or modes of transport, traffic volume on the Initial Expressways may decrease.

2.4. If the Government or EXAT (in compliance with the Government’s policies or orders) constructs, extends or renovates roads, routes or such other transportation systems which have similar use and any part thereof runs in competition with the Initial Expressways, the traffic volume of the Initial Expressways may materially decrease.

2.5. The capacity of the Initial Expressways may limit traffic growth.

2.6. The capacity derived from the report on the projected traffic volume of the Traffic Consultant is calculated based on expressway structures and is dependent upon factors such as development of real estate around expressways and motorists’ behavior which could change in the future.

2.7. Traffic volume forecasts are subject to various and significant uncertainties.

2.8. Unforeseen events may disrupt the use of the Initial Expressways.

Thailand Future Fund 8

Annual Report 2019

3.9. The Board of Directors of EXAT comprises representatives from various Government agencies and there is no guarantee that there will not be conflicts of interest as a result.

3.10. The Department of Highway (“DOH”) can cease to permit EXAT to use the land on which the Burapha Withi Expressway is located, and EXAT would not be entitled to damages or reimbursement of expenses in such case.

4.4. When there is a change in the Government, a new administration may not continue to carry out the existing plans of the current administration.

4.5. Continued violence in southern Thailand, terrorist attacks and international and regional instability could materially and adversely affect the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

4.6. Thailand is subject to potential sanctions from other countries which may impact its economy.

4.7. Thailand is prone to floods, which may continue to have a material adverse impact on the Thai economy.

4.8. Non-enforceability under Thai law of non-Thai judgments may limit Unitholders’ ability to recover damages from TFFIF or the Management Companies.

4.10. The financial statements of TFFIF will be prepared in accordance with TFRS, which differs from IFRS in certain material respects.

Investment Objectives TFFIF was established with an objective to invest mainly in Infrastructure Businesses that have the potential to create returns for TFFIF and to generate continued growth in returns on investment in order to enable TFFIF to make regular distributions to Unitholders.

2. POLICY, BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND PROCUREMENT OF BENEFITS

2.1 Aims and Objectives

The establishment, management and investment of TFFIF is in accordance with the Government policy as approved by Cabinet Resolutions, from a series of cabinet meetings, which can be summarised as follows:

No. Date of Cabinet Details of Cabinet Resolutions Resolutions

1. 17 November 2015 The Prime Minister issued an order on economic matters to require that the MOF, as the leading agency, consider and determine, in collaboration with other relevant agencies, guidelines on fundraising from capital markets to support the implementation of policies concerning the economy, particularly with respect to the investment in material infrastructure of the country and to expedite the establishment of a large infrastructure fund.

2. 15 December 2015 2.1 The Cabinet approved in-principle the establishment of TFFIF in accordance with the proposal of the MOF. The rationale for the establishment of TFFIF has been that:

(a) TFFIF will provide support to the Government’s investment in infrastructure projects to enhance the country’s competitiveness in the long-term;

(b) TFFIF will be a new source of funding for the development of infrastructure projects;

(c) TFFIF will ease the financial burden of the Government in raising funds for the investment in infrastructure projects;

(d) TFFIF will provide investors and those with savings with an opportunity to invest in quality Infrastructure Assets of state agencies; and

Thailand Future Fund 12

Annual Report 2019

No. Date of Cabinet Details of Cabinet Resolutions Resolutions

(e) TFFIF will support the development of the capital market of Thailand by providing an investment alternative.

2.2 The Cabinet resolved to approve the appointment of the Committee on the Establishment and Supervision of Thailand Future Fund to have the power and duties in connection with the establishment and operations of TFFIF and to also have powers an duties to consider details, forms and structures of operations of TFFIF, to consider the investments of and the redemption of Investment Units of the MOF in TFFIF and to perform any other tasks relating to TFFIF, including to co-ordinate with relevant agencies in accordance with the assignments from the MOF to ensure that the operations of TFFIF are efficient and are within the scope of the Cabinet’s approval.

3. 12 July 2016 3.1 The Cabinet approved the amended structure of the proposal made by the MOF with respect to the key features of TFFIF which had been approved by the Cabinet Resolution on December 15, 2015 whereby initially there would have been no fundraising from other investors, and the MOF would have been the sole unitholder of TFFIF having approximately THB 10 billion as the initial capital for the purpose of the establishment of TFFIF. For the purpose of an investment of approximately THB 1,000 million, the MOF would have had to redeem the Type B units of the MOF in the Vayupak Fund and use the proceeds from the redemption to purchase the Investment Units in TFFIF. The MOF would then consider using cash or securities to finance the remaining investment of approximately THB 9,000 million, or pay the subscription price of the Investment Units in TFFIF with the Type A units in Vayupak Fund (pay-in-kind), as it considered appropriate.

3.2 The Cabinet acknowledged the potential infrastructure projects for the investment by TFFIF which include 2 existing projects of the DOH, which are the Motorway No.7, Bangkok-Baan Chaang Route; and the Motorway No. 9 Outer Bangkok Ring Road route.

4. 30 May 2017 The Cabinet approved, in accordance with the MOF’s proposal, the structure and features of TFFIF for the fundraising by EXAT via TFFIF, the principles, the key terms and conditions of the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the investment of the MOF in TFFIF and the incentive measures for EXAT to raise funds via TFFIF using its Infrastructure Assets. The resolution also required that the Ministry of Transport, EXAT and the MOF proceed, without delay, with finalizing the terms of the Revenue Transfer Agreement including, other relevant details, and that the Government shall hold units in TFFIF at an appropriate level to provide assurance to investors as to its unitholding stability.

Thailand Future Fund 13

Annual Report 2019

Therefore, with consideration to the above principles for the establishment of TFFIF, the TFFIF is established with the objectives to generate returns for Unitholders at appropriate risk by investing in the Infrastructure Business Assets as intended, as well as procuring benefits from such Assets which will be invested in in the future. The Infrastructure Business Assets may be the assets of the project owner agency already in existence or which shall be created in the future. The Assets must have the potential to generate revenue for TFFIF and as such enable TFFIF to make long-term distributions to Unitholders in accordance with the terms and conditions as additionally stated in the Fund Scheme and prospectus, or as may be determined by the Unitholders’ resolution.

The Office of the SEC approved the establishment and management of TFFIF on the 25th day of October 2016 and the initial assets of TFFIF were registered on the 24th day of November 24, 2016. The initial capital was THB 1,000 million.

Distribution Policy and Distribution Method

Distributions to the Unitholders can be made from time to time by way of dividend payments and capital reduction as permitted under the Fund Scheme and the Thai Securities Law.

Distribution Policy

TFFIF has a dividend policy to pay dividend distributions to unitholders at least twice a year if TFFIF has sufficient retained earnings.

(a) In order to comply with the Fund Scheme and the Securities Law, if TFFIF has sufficient retained earnings in a given financial year and does not have accumulated losses, it must pay, in aggregate, not less than 90% (or any other percentage as may be permitted by the Securities Law from time to time) of its adjusted net profit for the financial year as dividend distributions to unitholders within 90 days from the end of the financial year of TFFIF or, with respect to an interim distribution payment, from the day following the end of such fiscal period, except where there is a necessary cause which prevents payment of interim distributions, in which case the Management Companies must notify the unitholders and the Thai SEC in writing accordingly.

"Adjusted net profit" means the net profit of TFFIF adjusted with the following:

(1) unrealised gain from the appraisal of the infrastructure assets of TFFIF and other adjustment items in accordance with the guidelines of the Thai SEC, to be in line with the cash basis of TFFIF;

Thailand Future Fund 14

Annual Report 2019

(2) capital reserve for the repair, maintenance and improvement of the infrastructure business of TFFIF according to the plan clearly specified in the Fund Scheme and the Prospectus or notified in advance by the Management Companies to Unitholders;

(3) capital reserve for repayment of any loan of TFFIF according to the financing policy clearly specified in the Fund Scheme or notified in advance by the Management Companies to Unitholders; and

(4) capital reserve for dividend to be distributed to the class of Unitholders who are entitled to receive the distribution before other Unitholders (if any).

In the event that TFFIF has a non-cash expense, such as an expense that is gradually amortised or an unrealised loss, the Management Companies will prepare capital reserves for the items set out under (2), (3) and (4) in the amount not exceeding the amount prescribed under (2) and (3) above for each financial period less the non-cash expenses.

(b) If the TFFIF has retained earnings, TFFIF may pay dividends from such retained earnings.

(c) The Management Companies will not pay dividends if TFFIF has accumulated loss.

If the criteria for dividend payments under securities laws are otherwise amended, supplemented or relaxed, the Management Companies will proceed accordingly. In such event, it shall be deemed that approval has been obtained from unitholders and it will not be deemed to be an amendment to the Fund Scheme.

Conditions for Distribution

If the value of interim distributions per Investment Unit to be paid is lower than or equal to THB 0.10, the Management Companies reserve the right not to pay such interim distributions at that time and to bring such interim distributions forward for payment together with the payment of annual distribution, in accordance with the distribution payment conditions and criteria as specified. TFFIF will, in aggregate, give distributions payment of at least 90.0% of the adjusted net profit.

Methods of Distribution Payment

The Management Companies will pay dividends in THB within 90 days from the end of relevant financial year or the relevant dividend distribution period or in the case of interim dividend payment, within 90 days from the end of the relevant financial period in which the dividend is distributed. If the Management Companies are not able to pay the dividends within such period, the Management Companies will notify the Unitholders and the Office of the SEC in writing.

The Management Companies will announce the payment of the dividends, the date of registrar book closure for dividend payment, and the rate of dividends by:

(a) publishing in at least one daily newspaper in Thailand;

The Management Companies must pay the dividends into the bank accounts of the unitholders or by an account payee only cheque in accordance with the list of the Unitholders and their addresses as they appear in the registrar book.

If any unitholder does not exercise its right to receive such the dividend distributions within the statutory prescription period, the Management Companies will not utilize such dividend for any purpose other than for the benefit of TFFIF.

The two Initial Expressways cover a total length of 83.2 km and comprise:

(a) the 28.2 km Chalong Rat Expressway, which connects the Eastern Bangkok Outer Ring road, located in the proximity of the Chatuchot area, with the Chaloem Maha Nakhon Expressway around At Narong and the Bang Na – At Narong Expressway; and

(b) the 55.0 km Burapha Withi Expressway, which is one of the longest elevated toll roads in Thailand and begins at the end of the Chaloem Maha Nakhon Expressway, in the proximity of Bang Na district, continuing to the east across the Bang Pakong river and ends in Chonburi province.

In the financial year ended September 30, 2018 and the period ending June 30, 2019, the average daily traffic volume on the Initial Expressways was 388,324 vehicles per day and 372,518 vehicles per day, respectively.

Details of the Initial Expressways

(a) The Chalong Rat Expressway is a 28.2 km six-lane elevated expressway that runs from the Eastern Bangkok Outer Ring road located in the proximity of Chatuchot, over Ram Inthra road in a south-west direction, thereafter, over Lat Phrao road, Pracha Uthid road and Rama IX road in a south direction, and finally over the Ramkhamhaeng road and Pattanakarn road in a south-east direction. From there, it runs parallel to Klong Tan, over east of the Phra Khanong bridge, and merges with the Chaloem Maha Nakhon Expressway around At Narong and the Bangna – At Narong expressway. The expressway was built in 1996 to alleviate traffic congestion along (i) the Ram Inthra road and the central business district of Bangkok to bypass Lat Phrao road, Rama IX road and Phetchaburi road and (ii) Chaloem Maha Nakhon Expressway.

The Chalong Rat Expressway connects the northern suburbs of Bangkok to the inner Bangkok area and seeks to address motorists’ demand for intra-city transportation and passes through significant residential areas and commercial districts at , Pracha Uthid road, Rama IX road and Ramkhamhaeng road. According to TEAM Consulting, the northern suburban area of Bangkok is one of the most attractive residential areas for people looking to move out of the Bangkok city center given the greater availability and price of land, relative ease of access to Bangkok’s inner area and close proximity to amenities which include shopping malls, quality hospitals and schools. The Chalong Rat Expressway was built to allow those living in the northern suburban areas to travel to and from their workplaces located in Bangkok’s central business district. It is directly connected with the Chaloem Maha Nakhon Expressway and the Si Rat Expressway, making it convenient for motorists to travel to areas within or around Bangkok. As it allows motorists to avoid highly congested areas such as Lat Phrao Road, Rama IX Road, and Phetchaburi Road, the Chalong Rat Expressway helps to alleviate traffic congestion in Ram Inthra and Bangkok downtown areas.

(b) The Burapha Withi Expressway is a 55.0 km six-lane elevated expressway that is one of the longest elevated toll roads in Thailand and is one of only two toll road routes which link Suvarnabhumi International Airport to the central business district of Bangkok. The Burapha Withi Expressway runs from the end of the Chaloem Maha Nakhon Expressway, in the proximity of Bang Na, over Highway No. 34 (Bang Na – Bang Pakong) towards the Bang Pakong river in the east, ending in the Chonburi province. The expressway was built in 1996 to alleviate traffic congestion along Highway No. 34 (Bang Na – Bang Pakong), and to aid the development of the Eastern Seaboard coast.

The Burapha Withi Expressway connects the south-eastern areas of Bangkok, which, according to TEAM Consulting, are among the most affluent areas of the city, with key destinations such as Suvarnabhumi International Airport, Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre and Mega Bangna (one of the largest shopping malls in Thailand), Chonburi province, one of Thailand’s largest industrial hubs and deep-sea ports, and its surrounding provinces, which comprise the Eastern Seaboard and considered by TEAM Consulting to be among the largest industrialised areas in Thailand with large industrial estates, such as Amata Nakorn Chonburi. In addition, the Burapha Withi Expressway is a primary route for motorists and freight between Bangkok and Chonburi province. Motorists can continue their journey from the end of the Burapha Withi Expressway to large industrial estates such as Map Ta Phut (the largest industrial complex in Thailand), Hemaraj Chonburi and Pattaya, a prominent tourist destination in Thailand.

The Burapha Withi Expressway is available for use by motorists in vehicles with four wheels, vehicles with six to ten wheels and vehicles with more than ten wheels.

The Burapha Withi Expressway typically experiences increased traffic volume during morning rush hours in the inbound direction between 7.00 a.m. and 9.00 a.m. as motorists travel towards central business district of Bangkok for work.

3. OVERVIEW OF THE INDUSTRIAL SITUATION

THE BANGKOK METROPOLITAN REGION TRANSPORTATION OVERVIEW

1. General Context

1.1 The area encompassing the current Bangkok toll roads and motorways includes the Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR) and its extended area, Chonburi and Chachoengsao provinces. The BMR is comprised of Bangkok Metropolitan (BMA) and its five vicinity provinces, namely Nonthaburi, Samutprakarn, Pathum Thani, Samut Sakhon and Nakhon Pathom with total area of approximately 7,800sq.km, see Figure 1.

Thailand Future Fund 24

Figure 1 BMR and the Extended Area

1.2 According to the 2010 National Population and Housing Census, the population of the BMR and the extended area was about 16.9 million, accounting for approximately 25.6% of the nation total, see Table 1. In terms of growth, population in this area grew by an average of 3.6% per annum over the period from 2000 to 2010. Population sharing of the national total increased by 6.2% which suggests a continual in migration of population into this area. About 57% of the BMR population (8.3 million) resided in the Bangkok. It should be noted here that the census population has included those unregistered population from other provinces who reside in the BMR.

1.4 The general pattern of urban growth in the BMR has been characterized by development sprawling out from the urban core areas into the surrounding suburban areas and to the adjacent provinces as a result of ineffective development regulation. The developments generally tend to follow a ribbon-like pattern, with almost continuous frontage retail and commercial activities alongside the main routes or transport infrastructure. A rapid growth in terms of population and economic activities took place in a horizontal rather than in a vertical manner.

2. BMR Passenger Transport Systems

2.1 The principal modes of passenger transportation in Bangkok are all road based of both private modes i.e. car, motorcycles and public transport modes. The current public transportation system of BMR consists of different types of buses (such as regular bus, air-conditioned bus and public van), urban rail rapid transit, taxi/samlor, railway and water transport modes. However, due to the urban’s sprawl and the under-developed public transport system have resulted in the city suffering from the rapid increase in number of private cars and motorcycles.

Road and Toll Road Networks

2.2 The Bangkok road network is broadly a radial pattern from the city core area. The network is characterized by relatively large blocks of urban development bounded by primary and secondary arterials with only limited distributor and access roads within these blocks. In most areas of Bangkok, there is no properly defined road hierarchy. Most primary roads have been subject to ribbon development characterized by uncontrolled frontage access onto the primary road. Hence, the major arterial roads have served not only through traffic, but also provide access for local traffic as can be observed from many median opening U-turn facilities

Thailand Future Fund 26

Annual Report 2019

provided along the routes to facilitate U-turn access to the development in the opposite side.

2.3 The Bangkok public transport service is inadequate and not comprehensively cover the whole urban area, road and expressway network have played important roles in accommodating the travel demand as they provide convenient or door-to-door service to the destinations. However, the Bangkok’s road system is inadequate to cope with increasing traffic demand. Road space provision in Bangkok is estimated at only around 8% of the total land area. The total road length within the Bangkok is around 4,000 km, of which approximately 360 km is expressway and toll road (The Bangkok Land Use Plan Study, BMA 2011).

2.4 Travel speeds on the central area road networks are highly variable but according to the BMA travel speed surveys, they are typically less than 10kph during peak hours. Comparable car speed in Singapore and Hong Kong are around 28kph (Y2014) and 20kph (Y2017), respectively. It is anticipated that demand will grow faster than the supply of road space resulting in further gradual lowering of average road travel speeds.

2.5 The toll road and expressway network has been devised to cope with increasing traffic and relieve traffic congestion which has achieved its objective. The success of the first stage expressway opened to traffic in 1981 led to a series of subsequent urban and suburban expressway projects constructed and opened during 1990-2000. The current expressway network covers major parts of Bangkok and suburban areas as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2 Existing BMR Road Network

2.6 It was estimated by MVA that in 2018 during the typical weekday around 12 million vehicular trips (excluding motorcycles) are used on the road and expressway network in BMR and the extended area. Of this, approximately 2 million vehicles

Thailand Future Fund 27

Annual Report 2019

or 17% have been recorded to use the Bangkok urban and suburban toll road systems for their daily trips.

2.7 The road network of Bangkok has not only been structured to serve transportation within the BMR but also to facilitate the intercity transportation needs between Bangkok and the rest of the country. As Bangkok has grown, the intercity transportation demand has also increased. At present, there are several major inter- city routes access to/from BMR.

2.8 The heavily traffic directions according to the 2018 Department of Highways (DOH) Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) are as follows: approximately 244,600 249,600 143,600 vehicles/day are to/from the north (Hwy.no 1, 32, 340), southeast (Hwy.no3, 34, M7, BNBP) and southwest (Hwy.no 4, 35), respectively. From this, approximately 15% 34% 28% are goods related vehicles.

Motor Vehicle Fleet

2.9 As shown in Table 3, in-use motor vehicle fleet in BMR was about 11.8 million as of September 2019. Private car van & pick up and motorcycle have dominated the vehicle fleet with accounting for approximately 93% of total vehicles.

2.10 From 2009 to 2019, total vehicle registrations grew at average 5.4% per annum and accounts for 30% of the total registered motor vehicles in Thailand. The average annual growth rates of private car and motorcycle over the 10 years period were

Thailand Future Fund 28

Annual Report 2019

7.9% and 4.4%, respectively and account for 50% and 21% of respective national registrations.

2.11 Taxi and bus fleet accounts for 95% and 35% of the respective national registrations, however their annual growth rates have been relatively low.

2.12 More details of each category are discussed below.

Private Car and Motorcycle

2.13 Throughout the 1980’s and early 1990’s, Thailand had been one of the fastest growing economies in Southeast Asia, approximately 8-10% per annum in the early 90’s before the economic crisis in 1997. The Thai economy had recovered after the crisis and grew by an average of 5% per annum in the 2000’s and has continued to grow although it was interrupted by various political unrests during last ten years. This has translated into rapid increase in real disposable incomes and hence into increases in vehicle ownership.

2.14 Figure 3 shows the trends of cumulative private car and motorcycle ownerships in Bangkok together with the trends of its census population and real GDP growth from 1980 to date. The growth trends of private car and motorcycle show the same trend as for the population and GDP but clearly with strong correlation with GDP growth. This implies they are key driving factors to the vehicle ownership growth.

Note: Since 2004, the record was deducted those abandoned cars from the registration database Sources: DLT, NESDB, NSO, MVA Figure 3 Cumulative Private Car, Motorcycle, Population and GDP growth Trends

2.15 In 1990, about 900,000 private cars were registered in Bangkok. By 2010, this had risen to 2.6 million or about three-fold increase in 20 years and by 2019 to

Thailand Future Fund 29

Annual Report 2019

about 5 million which implies that almost every household in Bangkok owns one car on average.

2.16 In 2019, about 300-400 new vehicles were added to Bangkok’s roads each day. On average, there were approximately 300 of the private cars per 1000 BMR citizens which was approximately three-fold of the same indicators in Singapore (98) and Hong Kong (76) or approximately at the same level as in London (320). The effect of this high growth in the vehicle fleet has been increasing road congestion and decreasing average travel speed as mentioned earlier.

2.17 The motorcycle fleet has also grown especially rapidly at the same trend, slightly higher, as in the private car, from 730,000 in 1990 to 2.5 million in 2010, and about three and a half-fold increase in 20 years and by 2019 to about 3.8 million. However, the trends of registered motorcycle have turned to be lower than the private car from 2010 expected as income growth and various attractive new car sale campaigns launched by the Government and car manufacturers.

2.18 Figure 4 illustrates trends in the number of new vehicles sales over the period 1990 to date for Thailand as a whole. New vehicle sales (all types) have boomed throughout the mid-90’s, to suddenly collapse from the 1997 economic crisis. It took about 5 years to recover and surpass the pre-crisis sales levels. The vehicle sales were dropped at the beginning of year 2006 and mid 2009 as a result of Thai political problems as well as global economic slowdown, and regrew as a result of economic recovery except during 3 months of serious flood at the end of 2011.

Source: Automotive Industry Club, The Federation of Thai Industries Figure 4 New Vehicle Sales

Thailand Future Fund 30

Annual Report 2019

2.19 The new vehicle sales are shown to tremendously increase during 2012-2013 due to various stimulus measures by the government especially the first-time car buyer program. The new vehicle sales dropped after 2013 as a result of the slowing demand from the after-effects of the program as buyers brought forward sales to take advantage of the incentive as well as the political unrest during 2013-2014 that led to the military coup in May 2014.

2.20 The growth in private car, pickups and motorcycle ownership in Bangkok is expected to continue although the new vehicle sales have shown to decline since the second quarter of 2019 due to more strictness in auto loan process as well as flooding in many areas that has reduced consumer purchasing power. Taxi/Tuktuk

2.21 Taxis provide a personal, speedy, comfortable and door-to-door service. They serve a role as an alternative to private car. Approximately 82,000 taxis were registered and licensed by the Commercial Vehicle Licensing Office of the Department of Land Transport (DLT) and are mainly operated by various forms of cooperation such as Taxi Cooperative. About 75,000 taxis were assumed in daily operation in BMR.

2.22 Taxi fares are regulated with the following structure: 35 Baht for first 1 km, after that charge with distance fare, 6.50, 7, 8, 8.5, 9, 10.5 Baht/km for km 1-10, 10-20, 20-40, 40-60, 60-80 and beyond 80km respectively.

2.23 Tuktuk is a 3-wheel taxi of three passengers' capacity and is operated mainly in the Bangkok inner area for tourist trip purpose. The numbers of units are restricted to 14,000. Fares are not regulated, and are negotiated on hire, however most are close to fare of metered taxi.

2.24 It is estimated that taxi and Tuktuk carry about 1.7-1.8 million passenger trips in BMR per day. Bus Service

2.25 Buses are the backbone of land public transport in Bangkok accounting for more than 50% of all passenger trips. Bus service is provided by the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority (BMTA) and it operates throughout Bangkok as well as to adjoining provinces.

2.26 As of 2017, the BMTA operate approximately total 2,670 buses in 118 routes directly and a further 11,450 buses that include 3,440 privately-owned buses, 940 minibuses, 2,130 small buses which provide services in local area (Soi) and 4,820 vans operated under BMTA and the private joint service operations, see Table 4. About 90% of total buses are reported in daily operation.

2.27 Average 2017 weekday BMTA bus passengers were approximately 2.5 million (1.9 million and 0.6 million passengers for Regular bus and Air-conditioned bus, respectively). Based on this information, it was estimated that around 2.4 million passengers were served by the private joint service buses.

2.29 The service provided by the bus system is seriously hampered by the effects of traffic congestion especially in the Bangkok central area. Present policy aims at controlling fares to maintain affordability, but this results in increasing subsidies for the government operators while the unsubsidized private operators must reduce quality and service standards to a minimum in order to cover their costs. This encourages people to buy private cars, thus adding to congestion to the road network.

Ferry Service

2.30 Ferries operated by private companies on the Chao Phraya River and Khlongs. Ferry services along Chao Praya River are licensed by the Harbour Department, under the MOT, while services along the canal (Khlong San Saeb and Khlong Prakanong) are authorized and supervised by the BMA’s Department of Drainage and Sewage. The current fare of the Chao Praya express boat is 9-32 Baht depending on the route, type of service and distance whilst the San Saeb Khlong boat service is 9-19 Baht depending on distance.

2.31 Total weekday passenger using Chao Phraya express ferry is approximately 40,700, whilst average weekday passenger using San Saeb Khlong ferry is approximately 70,700 (source: The Marine department).

SRT Train Service

Thailand Future Fund 32

Annual Report 2019

2.32 The commuter railway service in Bangkok is operated by the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) along four lines (northern, eastern, northeastern, and southern lines). The service with relatively low frequencies provides a number of daily commuter trains on the radial lines (5 routes) out of Bangkok to distance up to 100km. It is estimated that the number of rail passengers in BMR were approximately 50,000 per day.

Bangkok Rail Rapid Transit

2.33 The introduction of the first Bangkok rail rapid transit in 1999 has demonstrated a mean for a fast and more reliable public transport service for daily commuters in Bangkok. The current Bangkok rail rapid transit system comprises the BTS, MRTA blue and purple lines and the Airport rail link with total service length of approximately 138km and 99 stations in service as shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5 Existing BKK Rail Rapid Transit Systems

2.34 The Bangkok Transit System (BTS) operated by the Bangkok Mass Transit System Corporation (BTSC) was firstly opened in December 1999, followed by the underground MRTA blue line, the Airport Rail link and the Purple line opened in April 2004, August 2010 and August 2016, respectively.

2.35 Approximately 1.27 million passengers (including transfer passengers) are served daily (weekday). The majority of market share (60%) belongs to BTS system, followed by the MRT Blue line (30%), whilst the ARL and the Purple line have total market share of about 10%.

2.36 In recent years, the government placed emphasis on rail infrastructure investment in Bangkok including fast track policies to expedite construction. Figure 6 presents the committed BKK rail rapid transit master plan up to 2031. Once completed, approximately 235km rail line will be added to the network. By 2031, total Bangkok rail rapid transit network will have approximately 525km in length with 360 stations in service.

2.37 It should be noted here that additional 8 rail rapid transit lines which include the Blue line extension, the Green line extension, Red lines, Pink line, Yellow line, Orange line and the Gold line are currently under construction. By 2023, approximately 165km and 110 stations will be added to the current network.

3. BMR Transport Demand

3.1 Figure 7 provides a summary of the estimated BMR transport demand based on the MVA 4-stage model and the latest Bangkok transport situation.

Unit: Million person trips per weekday Source: MVA Figure 7 BMR Transport Demand

3.2 It was estimated by MVA that approximately 30.5 million person trips per weekday were made by the BMR (and the expanded areas) population of 16.9 million in 2018. About 16.3, 4.8, 1.8 and 0.8 million trips were made by cars, motorcycles, taxis and private buses, respectively. In 2031, total demand was estimated to be 36.5 million trips made by 18 million BMR population.

Thailand Future Fund 34

Annual Report 2019

3.3 In order to cope with the future transport demand, various committed projects have been planned by various transport authorities. The emphasis has been given to the investment of the Bangkok rail rapid transit projects. Several new toll roads have been additionally planned for this purpose and are further discussed in more detail.

4. Bangkok Freight Transport and Airport Traffic

4.1 In addition to passenger transport, freight transport and airport traffic are also key traffic elements to influence the BMR traffic conditions that cannot be ignored.

Bangkok Freight Transport

4.2 Truck transport dominates the freight transport industry in Thailand as well as within the BMR and the extended area. Approximately 266,000 trucks, or about 23% of the total national truck, were registered in BMR in 2019. The average annual growth rate of BMR truck fleet over the past 10 years period was 3.2%.

4.3 The effect of trucks on traffic flow and road capacity is large as trucks are slower, less manoeuvrable and larger than private cars, and in the past this has significant influence on traffic conditions, road safety and environmental of the city. In this regard, the first measure to tackle the issues and reduce the traffic load of heavy trucks was to restrict their movements in Bangkok. The restrictions have been in place since 1989.

4.4 The latest Bangkok truck restrictions from the Traffic Police Division are strictly enforced within the area of 133sq.km surrounding by the Middle Ring Road (Ratchadapisek Road). Trucks with 10-wheel or more are banned to enter this area during 6am-9pm either using toll or non-toll roads. As a result, truck traffic flows in this area are relatively low compared to those non-truck ban routes i.e. Outer Ring Road, or Motorway M9, etc. In addition, the truck routes are also restricted in the BKK area outside the Middle Ring Road but with less time restriction i.e. during 6- 10am and 3-9pm for non-toll road and 6-9am and 3-9pm for toll road/expressway respectively.

Bangkok Airport Traffic

4.5 There are two international airports located in BMR, namely Suvarnabhumi airport and Don Mueang airport. With a continued growth in airport usage, the airport related traffic has influenced to traffic conditions in particular on the access routes linked to the airports i.e. motorway M7, SES D, BNBP for the Suvarnabhumi airport and Viphavadi Road and Tollway for the Don Mueang airport.

4.6 As of September 2019, total air traveller (excluding transit) was about 8.77 million per month, comprising of 5.35 million and 3.42 million of Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang airports respectively. Annual growth rates of Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang during 2015-2019 are computed to be 5.5% and 8.1% respectively.

Thailand Future Fund 35

Annual Report 2019

4.7 It was estimated based on the above air traveller statistic that approximately 49,600 and 82,900 vehicular trips (one-way) are airport traffic related to passenger activities of Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi Airports, respectively. In addition, about 16,000 vehicular trips (one-way) are related to air cargo activity of Suvarnabhumi airport. The current airport capacity will be expanded according to their master plans, hence the growths of airport traffic of the two airports are expected to continue

Bangkok Toll Road Industry

5. Current Bangkok Toll Road Situation

5.1 The current toll road network has total length of approximately 390km, constitutes of 10 expressway systems, 172 toll plazas, of which 250km (134 toll plazas) is the urban and suburban toll road systems and 137km (38 toll plazas) is the intercity motorway systems connecting Bangkok and the areas of Eastern Seaboard. The existing Bangkok Expressway and Toll Road systems are graphically presented on Figure 8.

Figure 8 Existing Bangkok Toll Road

5.2 Figure 9 provides a summary of the Bangkok toll road development timeline over the period of 35 years.

Thailand Future Fund 36

Annual Report 2019

Figure 9 Bangkok Toll Road Development Timeline

5.3 The first toll road in Bangkok was opened in 1981 with the coverage distance of 27km to alleviate traffic congestion of the Bangkok inner area. With the accomplishment of the first stage expressway led to a series of subsequent investment of urban and suburban expressway projects during the 1990s. Total toll road network was extended to almost 300km by 1998, or approximately ten times in 20 years since the first toll road in Bangkok. After 2000, the expansion is restricted to only the short links between the existing network or extensions to connect with the vicinity provinces.

5.5 The following points are highlighted from the above information.

 Most toll road systems are elevated with 6-8 traffic lanes except the suburban SES C+ system currently operated with 4 traffic lanes (to be expanded to 6 lanes once traffic volume reaches the threshold level).

 Two types of toll rate system, flat toll system and distance-based system, are currently implemented. Flat toll system is applied to most of urban and suburban toll road, except the SES C+ and SOBRR systems. For intercity toll road systems, distance- based tolls are applied to both M7 and BNBP systems. Toll can be optionally paid by cash or by the electronic toll collection card (Easy Pass).

 The SES urban and suburban systems (A,B,C,D,C+ and SOE) are operated by BEM, whilst Tollway is operated by DMT

Thailand Future Fund 38

Annual Report 2019

6.2 Since the opening of the first stage expressway system in 1982, the rapid growth of toll road traffic was shown and evidenced by the increase in its traffic from 25,500 vehs/day to the level of 340,000 vehs/day in 1993, at the time the second stage expressway was opened. The average annual growth rate during that period was approximately 18%.

6.3 The sudden surge in toll road traffic is seen during the 1990s due to the opening of subsequent urban and suburban expressway projects in particular the second stage expressway systems (SES A,B,C,D) completely opened to traffic in 1998. After 1999, the toll road traffic however has continued to grow even though only SOBRR (22.5km) and SOE (16.7km) systems were added to the network.

6.4 Table 6 summarizes traffic performance of each toll road system from the opening to 2018.

6.5 Key points to note regarding toll traffic performance are as follows:

 In 2018, approximately 2.2M vehs/day and 400K vehs/day were handled by the BKK urban/ suburban toll road and the intercity toll road systems, respectively. The respective average growth rates of the two systems during 2013-2018 were 3.3% and 6.2%.

Thailand Future Fund 39

Annual Report 2019

 For urban and suburban toll road systems, the majority of market share (49%) belongs to the FES and SES, followed by the M9 (14%) and SOBRR (12%) as part of the BKK Outer Ring Road, RAE (11%), Tollway (7%). The SES C+ and SOE have their market shares of about 7%.

 The highest annual traffic growth rate is seen at 27% from the SOE system due to its ramp-up process and a good level of service (high reserved capacity). The lowest annual growth rates of 0%-1.2% are seen from the urban FES and SES systems expected to reach their saturation levels, whilst the growth rates of RAE, Tollway and SES C+ vary between 4%-6% mainly as a result of their adequate reserved capacities to handle more traffic.

 For intercity toll road, the majority of market share (61%) belongs to M7, while the share of BNBP is about 39%. It should be noted that both M7 and BNBP serves traffic in the same corridor to connect Bangkok and the Eastern Seaboard areas.

 The proportions of 6-wheel and 10+ wheel vehicles are 1-3% and 5-21% for urban and suburban toll road system (except M9 and SOBRR) and intercity toll road system, respectively. The low utilization of urban and suburban toll road is clearly as a result of the Bangkok truck ban mentioned earlier.

7. Toll Road Traffic Growth and Its Key Drivers

7.1 Trends of toll road traffic, car registration and toll road length are shown in Figure 11.

Source: EXAT, DLT, DOH

Figure 11 Trends of Toll Road Traffic and Key Drivers

7.2 Total length of toll road network is substantially increased during the 1990s from various investment of urban and suburban expressway projects after the success of the first stage expressway mentioned earlier. This has assisted to stimulate the growth of toll road traffic during that period in particular during the 1997 economic

Thailand Future Fund 40

Annual Report 2019

crisis. From 2000, there were very few toll roads added to the network mainly as a result of land acquisition issue and the Government’s emphasis on investment of Bangkok rail rapid transit.

7.3 On the other hand, toll road traffic growth trends are seen to closely correlate with the trends of car population since the opening of the first stage expressway in 1982 and has continued to grow, although with very few or no new toll road added to the network.

7.4 With continuing economic growth and without private car ownership restraint policy, the growth in car and motorcycle ownership in Bangkok is expected to continue and will place enormous pressure to the speed of the limited road space and as a result to the growth in toll road traffic. Figure 12 demonstrates the recorded average Bangkok road speed index plotted with Bangkok car ownership and urban toll road traffic to confirm this.

8. Future BMR Toll Road Plan and Development Project

8.1 Future committed toll road projects are shown in Figure 13. Once completed, about 820km will be added to the current toll road network and anticipated to stimulate the growth of toll road traffic similar to what occurred in the 1990s mentioned earlier.

8.2 Committed toll road projects in the BMR are described separately below.

The Bangkok Toll Missing Link

8.3 The Bangkok toll missing link project main objective is to connect the Si Rat - Outer Ring Road Expressway (SOE) with the Third Stage expressway. The 2.6 kilometres and four lanes (2 lanes per direction) elevated section connects the eastern end SOE to the Third Stage expressway at Ratchavipha interchange.

Third Stage Expressway (N1-2-EW)

8.4 The Third Stage expressway is an extension Bangkok expressway system planned as an East-West link for Northern Bangkok area. The project consists three sections of N1, N2 and E-W section. The N1 connects with the planned toll missing link project near Ratchavipha intersection and runs north along Viphavidha road then heads easts north of Kasetsart University. The alignment runs around the perimeter of the university before joining Prasert-Manukitch road at Lat Pla Khao intersection. The N2 and the EW section continues along Prasert-Manukitch road until it reaches the Eastern Outer Ring road. The elevated expressway has four lanes and seven access and exit points.

Rama III – Dao Kanong – Western Kanchanaphisek Road Expressway

8.5 The Rama III – Dao Kanong – Western Kanchanaphisek road expressway is a planned western extension of the Bangkok expressway system expressway. The expressway is approximately 19 kilometres in length with six lanes and about seven on/off ramps. The elevated expressway begins east of the western outer ring road connecting to the planned Thonburi – Pak Tho motorway. The alignment follows Rama 2 road east then turns right to follow the Chaloem Maha Nakhon expressway and ending at Bang Khlo interchange connecting with the existing FES and SES systems.

Uttraphimuk Tollway Extension – Bang Pa-In – Chiang Rai Motorway (M5)

8.6 The Motorway M5 is a part of a future motorway network reaching the northern most province of Chiang Rai. The section between Rangsit and Bang Pa In, or the Utraphimuk tollway extension, is a six-lane elevated road approximately 18 kilometres in length. The alignment runs elevated and parallel to Phahon Yothin road with future connection to the Bang Pa In – Nakhon Ratchasima motorway.

Kanchanaphisek Road – Saraburi Expressway Project (M62)

8.7 The Motorway Kanchanaphisek Road (Eastern Section) – Saraburi was planned by the Department of Highways (DOH) to provide an alternative route for vehicles traveling northeast. The motorway is expected to continue from the Chalong Rat expressway at the Kanchanaphisek Road interchange and travels through Nakhon Nayok province before intersecting (via interchange) with the motorway M6 in Kaeng Koi ending at Saraburi province. It should be noted here that the motorway M62 has the same alignment as the Chalongrat – Nakon Nayok – Saraburi expressway planned by the Expressway Authority of Thailand (EXAT) and it is believed that only one project will be selected for implementation.

Burapha Withi Expressway – Chon Buri Bypass Extension

8.8 The project is a planned extension of the Burapha Withi Expressway to Chonburi Bypass. The 3.5 kilometres elevated expressway follow the alignment of Sukhumvit Road before terminating into Chonburi bypass road allowing traffic to directly connect with the Chonburi bypass.

Bang Na-At Narong Expressway (S1) – Bangkok Port Project

8.9 This project was planned as part of the Bangkok Port (Khlong Toei Port) improvement plan. The expressway link will connect the port distribution centre to the Bang Na-At Narong Expressway (S1) linking with Chalong Rat expressway and Burapha Withi improving the movement of goods to other parts of the country.

8.10 The list of toll road projects in BMR and its current project status is summarized in Table 7.

8.11 Under the nationwide motorway network master plan, 21 motorway routes have been planned to be constructed between 2017-2036. Various toll roads originating from the Bangkok Outer Ring Road aim to connect Bangkok to each region reaching the borders of Thailand.

The Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC)

8.12 The Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) Development Programmes, which operates in three eastern provinces (Chaochoengsao, Chonburi, and Rayong) has been planned under the Thailand 4.0 initiative with the aim to revitalize and enhance the well-known Eastern Seaboard (ESB) Development to drive the country’s economic growth.

8.13 Key EEC promotional zones include the following areas: 1) U-Tapao Airport City- 6,500 rai, 2) The Eastern Economic Corridor of Innovation (EECi) in the Wangchan Valley-3,000 rai and the Sriracha Space Inspirium-120 rai, 3) Digital Park Thailand (EECd) in the Sriracha district-709 rai, 4) Rayong Smart Park-1466 rai, and 5) Hemaraj Eastern Seaboard 4 Industrial Estate-1,900 rai (source: the Eastern Economic Corridor Office of Thailand).

8.14 The success of the challenging EEC development programmes are expected to be a new economic driver for the country’s economy and as a result to stimulate both intra- and intercity traffic demand along the EEC transport corridor which obviously includes the Motorway M7 and the BNBP Expressway.

9. Toll Road Traffic Disruptions

Toll Road Traffic Disruptions in the Past

9.1 Disruptions to toll road traffic occurred in the past were reviewed based on the analysis of year-over-year (YoY) change of toll traffic of the Bangkok urban/suburban toll road systems (FES, SES, RAE, Tollway, M9 and SOBRR) and intercity toll roads (M7 and BNBP).

9.2 Figure 14 displays the year-over-year (YoY) change over the period of 1995 to 2018, highlighting with relevant external disruptive factors.

Note: Total traffic of FES, SES, RAE, Tollway, M9, SOBRR (vehicles/day) Figure 14 YoY % Change of Bangkok Toll Road Traffic

9.3 The key points to highlight are as follows:

 Obvious impacts are seen from economic disruptions in 1998 from the Asian economic crisis and in 2008 from the hamburger crisis.

 For 1998, toll road traffic growth suddenly collapsed from the high growth rate of 20- 30% in the preceding years to negative growth of 5% in 1999 and it took about 4-5 years to recover to the pre-crisis level as mentioned elsewhere in this report.

 For 2008, the disruption was from the composite of the hamburger crisis and the Thai political problem as a consequence of the 2006 coup. Urban toll road traffic turned to negative growth of approximately 5% from the preceding year, while the intercity toll road traffic had the same trend, but with lower impact.

Thailand Future Fund 45

Annual Report 2019

 The Thai political problem that led to the army coups in 2006 and 2014 also caused negative disruptions to both urban and intercity toll road traffic. The YoY % changes of the urban toll road show that there were almost no growth on that years.

 The decrease of urban toll road traffic growth in 2016 to date is expected mainly as a result of the suppress demand due to the current area-wide traffic congestion from construction of Bangkok rail transit projects and partly as a result of the current nation’s economic situation. Whilst the opposite trend is seen for the intercity toll road mainly from the recent opening of the Motorway M7 extension from Chonburi to Pattaya.

Future Toll Road Disruptions

9.4 The Thai Government has placed the emphasis with massive investment in construction of the Bangkok rail rapid transit with the objective to provide an alternative means of transportation in Bangkok. This is to encourage private car users to shift to public transport mode. To achieve the objective, however, depends significantly on several key factors below.

 Transit fare: The Government has recently initiated to implement the integrated ticket between different transport modes and rail rapid transit system is included in the plan. The current fares of each Bangkok rail rapid transit system are different and not be integrated, means that additional boarding fare will be charged to passenger whenever transfer to use different systems i.e. from BTS to Blue line, etc. Total fare paid to complete the trip will be more expensive than to use the private car as more passengers can be accompanied without additional cost.

 Feeder system: the route or mode to access rail station are very essential and need to be convenient with reasonable price.

 Car park: it’s necessary to provide safe and sufficient car park nearby the rail station (within walking distance) in particular those stations located in the suburban areas. Park and ride facilities have been planned in many future stations but based on the current practice car park fee will be charged and this will cause additional cost added to the trip in addition to transit fare.

9.5 With the increase of traffic congestion and awareness of air pollution in Bangkok, several traffic demand management measures have been discussed and studied not only to supplement the rail rapid transit investment program but also to manage and control of private car use. The measures have involved area pricing, restriction on car population, odd-even car license plate regulation, etc. These measures will definitely help to ease traffic congestion and as a result have implication to toll road traffic. However, the conclusion and the plan to implement the schemes are still unclear.

4. RISK FACTORS

4.1. Risks relating to the Organisation, Structure and Management of TFFIF

4.1.1. TFFIF is a newly established entity without any revenue-generating operations or Infrastructure Assets of its own, save for its investment in financial instruments and in the right to the Transfer Revenue under the Revenue Transfer Agreement. The right to the Transfer Revenue will be its sole Initial Infrastructure Asset after the Revenue Transfer Agreement is effective.

TFFIF is a newly established entity without any revenue-generating operations or any other Infrastructure Assets of its own save for its investment in financial instruments. Upon completion of the Offering, the net proceeds from the Offering, after expenses, will be used to acquire the contractual right to the Transfer Revenue from EXAT under the Revenue Transfer Agreement. When the transfer of contractual right to the Transfer Revenue becomes effective pursuant to the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the right to the Transfer Revenue will be the sole initial Infrastructure Asset of TFFIF. TFFIF will be reliant on EXAT’s ability to generate toll revenue from the Initial Expressways and therefore, on EXAT’s operation, maintenance and development of the Initial Expressways. In the event that TFFIF cannot acquire new Infrastructure Assets or invest in additional contractual rights to receive revenue sharing or cash flows from Infrastructure Assets in the future, or if the Revenue Transfer Agreement is terminated or expires, TFFIF would not generate any revenue and, as a result, Unitholders may not receive any future returns from TFFIF. As such, an investment in TFFIF is subject to greater risks than an investment in a fund or company with operating assets and more diverse revenue sources.

4.1.2. TFFIF is reliant on EXAT for the operation of the Initial Expressways and the collection and delivery of the Transfer Revenue to TFFIF.

TFFIF will be reliant on EXAT’s operation of the Initial Expressways and ability to generate and collect tolls from the Initial Expressways and hence delivery of the Transfer Revenue to TFFIF, over which TFFIF will only have limited control under the Revenue Transfer Agreement. The amount of Transfer Revenue depends on toll revenue collected from the Initial Expressways, which in turn depends on a variety of factors, such as toll rates, traffic volume and the condition of the Initial Expressways.

4.1.3. Inability to acquire new assets or generate new revenue streams would materially limit TFFIF’s operations, and may materially and adversely affect TFFIF’s financial results and position and future prospects, and may result in the dissolution of TFFIF upon the termination or expiry of the Revenue Transfer Agreement.

Upon completion of the transfer of Transfer Revenue from EXAT to TFFIF in accordance with the Revenue Transfer Agreement, TFFIF’s revenue will initially be solely derived from the right to the Transfer Revenue starting from the completion of the transfer of the right to the Transfer Revenue until the end of the Grant Period (as defined in the Revenue Transfer Agreement). Therefore, the value of the Initial Infrastructure Asset will decrease with each passing year as the remaining term of the Revenue Transfer Agreement decreases. The decrease in value each year may be at different rate depending on the

Thailand Future Fund 47

Annual Report 2019

valuation. At the end of the Grant Period, the value of Investment Units could possibly be nil. In addition, while TFFIF may have the right to further invest in the Infrastructure Assets of EXAT in the future, EXAT reserves the right to select any of the parties’ proposals which is favorable, and may, at its discretion, terminate the fundraising for the proposed investment in such Infrastructure Assets. There can be no assurance that EXAT will select TFFIF’s proposal or that TFFIF will have any opportunity to invest in any new Infrastructure Assets to be held by EXAT. As such, if TFFIF does not acquire new assets or other revenue streams apart from the right to the Transfer Revenue prior to the expiry of the Grant Period, the value of the Investment Units may decrease to nil at the expiry of the Revenue Transfer Agreement. In addition, Unitholders may no longer receive any returns from TFFIF when the Revenue Transfer Agreement is terminated following an uncured event of default or by mutual agreement between the parties. This would have a material adverse effect on TFFIF’s ability to make distributions to Unitholders and on the market price of the Investment Units. In such an event, TFFIF may be dissolved. Neither TFFIF nor the Management Companies can assure Unitholders that they will receive any proceeds, including proceeds from such dissolution in an amount at least equal to their initial investment in the Investment Units. If TFFIF is dissolved in accordance with the terms of the Fund Scheme, the Unitholders’ rights to distribution payments will be subordinated to certain third-party payments, including fees and expenses of the Fund Supervisor and the Management Companies, as well as any obligations under external financing arrangements of TFFIF, if any, and Unitholders may not be able to recover the amount invested in the Investment Units.

4.1.4. TFFIF may not have ownership over the future toll revenue transferred to it pursuant to the Revenue Transfer Agreement in case such transfer is deemed to be a “sale for transfer of ownership” under Thai laws, and such revenue may be subject to claims by other creditors.

The Revenue Transfer Agreement is a revenue sharing arrangement between EXAT and TFFIF whereby TFFIF has an exclusive right to the Transfer Revenue, in the agreed amount, and for the Grant Period. EXAT still has the power and responsibility for the day- to-day management of the Initial Expressways. While the Revenue Transfer Agreement is a revenue sharing agreement that can be enforced between parties and has characteristics which are distinguishable from those specified contracts under the Civil and Commercial Code.

However, the Revenue Transfer Agreement and the transfer of the right to the toll revenue to be collected in the future could be characterised as a sale of ownership under Thai laws and the Thai courts may further find that the Transfer Revenue is characterised as “unascertained property” which may expose this transfer to legal challenges. For instance, Thai courts may find that EXAT and TFFIF have not properly identified the Transfer Revenue under the terms of the Revenue Transfer Agreement on the basis that the Transfer Revenue will only be generated in the future, and the ownership of the Transfer Revenue can only be transferred to TFFIF following the receipt of the underlying toll revenue by EXAT and only after the underlying toll revenue from the Initial Expressways received by EXAT has been segregated from the toll revenue collected from other EXAT Expressways and delivered to TFFIF. Therefore, if TFFIF’s right to the toll revenue is

Thailand Future Fund 48

Annual Report 2019

challenged, the right to the Transfer Revenue under the Revenue Transfer Agreement may be materially and adversely impacted.

As a result, any successful challenge to the transfer of the Transfer Revenue or the enforceability of the Revenue Transfer Agreement will result in TFFIF’s loss of this revenue source, which would adversely and materially impact its operations, financial results and position and future prospects, and its ability to make distributions to Unitholders.

In addition, existing or future creditors of EXAT may raise claims against EXAT for the cash comprising the Transfer Revenue. If a creditor or other party raises a claim against EXAT, TFFIF’s rights to claim against EXAT may not have priority over the rights of EXAT’s other unsecured creditors.

4.1.5. TFFIF and Unitholders are limited in their remedies against EXAT in the event of a breach of the Revenue Transfer Agreement or total loss caused to any of the Initial Expressways resulting from EXAT’s fault as under Thai law all of EXAT’s properties are not subject to an attachment or other forms of execution of legal judgment.

Under the Revenue Transfer Agreement TFFIF may claim the Outstanding Transfer Revenue from EXAT in the event of a material breach by EXAT or total loss caused to any of the Initial Expressways as a result of the fault of EXAT. However, if damages suffered by TFFIF exceed the Outstanding Transfer Revenue, TFFIF would be limited in its remedies against EXAT, in any case, and TFFIF may not be compensated by way of enforcement against EXAT’s assets. Under Thai laws, all of EXAT’s properties are exempt from attachment or other forms of execution of legal judgment. Although TFFIF is entitled to bring a legal action against EXAT pursuant to the Revenue Transfer Agreement, Section 13 of the EXAT Act provides that the assets of EXAT are not subject to enforceability, which may preclude TFFIF and Unitholders from enforcing against EXAT’s assets upon any judgment that they may obtain against EXAT in connection with disputes from or connected to the Revenue Transfer Agreement.

Furthermore, under Thai law, there may be no seizure of state property whether or not the state property is part of the domaine public (which includes any kind of state property which is used for the public interest or reserved for the common benefit of the public). Property that forms part of the domaine public is inalienable, except by virtue of a special law or royal decree. The Office of the Council of State expressed in an opinion on TFFIF with respect to the Infrastructure Assets of EXAT (opinion No. 1635/2016) that, in order to achieve its objectives under Section 8 of the EXAT Act, EXAT would require funding for its operations which can be sourced in various manners. Entering into the Revenue Transfer Agreement is one of the funding sources for use in the construction and maintenance of expressways that are within the objectives of EXAT as set out in the EXAT Act. Thus, EXAT has the power to enter into the Revenue Transfer Agreement with TFFIF pursuant to Section 10 (14) of the EXAT Act (i.e. to carry out any act in connection with the achievement of objectives). However, such opinion of the Council of State did not clearly contemplate whether revenues to be generated from assets of a state-owned enterprise form part of the state property or the domaine public and there are no clear precedents of Thai courts on whether revenues to be generated from assets of a state-owned

Thailand Future Fund 49

Annual Report 2019

enterprise form part of the state property or the domaine public. If the right to Transfer Revenue to be transferred to TFFIF is deemed by the court to form part of EXAT’s assets that are used for the national interest and the common benefit of the public and are not transferable, it is highly likely that the transfer of the right to the Transfer Revenue under the Revenue Transfer Agreement will be revoked and TFFIF may not be able to enforce for payment of any damages or compensation from EXAT as EXAT will be immune to injunction, order, or recovery of property, the attachment of assets, and the execution or enforcement of any judgment in relation to its assets or revenue, notwithstanding the commercial nature.

4.1.6. As a newly established entity, TFFIF has limited operating history and Unitholders have limited financial information based on which to evaluate TFFIF and to make an investment decision.

TFFIF has a limited operating history, and has no operating history involving owning Infrastructure Assets or rights to revenue generated by such assets, by which its past performance can be judged, and investors may find it difficult to evaluate its performance and prospects.

4.1.7. The Management Companies may not be able to implement their investment strategies or agree to amendments or modifications to the Revenue Transfer Agreement or grant waivers or consents without first obtaining consent from the Unitholders.

The Management Companies will undertake the day-to-day management as stipulated under the law and according to the terms of the Revenue Transfer Agreement and control of TFFIF’s business, which will be supervised by the Fund Supervisor. TFFIF may acquire additional Infrastructure Assets without obtaining the approval of the Unitholders and the Fund Supervisor if the proposed acquisition does not exceed the lower of (a) THB 100 million or (b) 30.0% of the NAV of TFFIF at the time of the proposed acquisition. Hence, Unitholders may not have the opportunity to evaluate the Management Companies’ decisions regarding specific strategies used or investments made by the Management Companies or the terms of any such investment. The inability of the Management Companies to successfully implement certain strategies could have a material adverse effect on TFFIF’s operations, financial results and position and future prospects.

The Management Companies’ ability to successfully implement their investment strategies will depend on, among other factors, their ability to identify suitable investment opportunities that meet TFFIF’s investment criteria and to obtain financing for TFFIF on commercially satisfactory terms. There can be no assurance that the Management Companies will be able to implement their investment strategies successfully or that they will be able to do so in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Other than with respect to certain matters specified in the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the Management Companies will have the right to exercise, or to consent to the exercise of, all rights and remedies to be taken with respect to EXAT and the Initial Expressways or to consent to certain amendments and modifications of or grant waivers permitted under any of the Revenue Transfer Agreement in their sole discretion for the benefit of TFFIF in general (other than in relation to matters which require consent or approval from the

Thailand Future Fund 50

Annual Report 2019

Unitholders for the benefit of TFFIF), which may not be consistent with the interest of every Unitholder. Accordingly, Unitholders will have limited involvement or ability to participate in making decisions on certain matters that might affect TFFIF’s business. Any such actions taken by the Management Companies for the benefit of TFFIF in general will be binding on the Unitholders and such action, which is taken in the interest of TFFIF in general, may not always be in their best interests.

4.1.8. The Management Companies and TFFIF are not experienced in the operations of toll roads, and the Management Companies’ inability to manage TFFIF or EXAT’s inability to operate the Initial Expressways in an effective and efficient manner could have a material adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

The Management Companies will manage TFFIF. In turn, the Management Companies will depend on EXAT in respect of the operation and management of the Initial Expressways. After the Revenue Transfer Agreement is effective and TFFIF has acquired the right to the Transfer Revenue, EXAT will remain the operator of the Initial Expressways, subject to limited supervision and monitoring by the Management Companies, acting on behalf of TFFIF, in accordance with the Revenue Transfer Agreement. The Management Companies and TFFIF do not have any experience or expertise in operating toll roads, and may need to rely on the expertise of third-party technical advisors, if necessary. There is no guarantee that the Management Companies and such technical advisers (if any) will be able to ensure that EXAT’s decision will be in the best interest of TFFIF. Although EXAT’s internal policies require it to operate at a prescribed level of quality and safety standards, the inability of EXAT to manage the Initial Expressways properly in accordance with agreed terms and conditions under the Revenue Transfer Agreement may adversely affect the Transfer Revenue and consequently the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF, and TFFIF’s ability to pay distributions to Unitholders and pay amounts due on any indebtedness incurred. Moreover, any adverse changes in the Management Companies’ relationship with EXAT could hinder their respective abilities to manage TFFIF’s operations.

4.1.9. TFFIF is subject to certain risks relating to the Revenue Transfer Agreement in case of breach of EXAT’s obligations under the Revenue Transfer Agreement or an event of default, or certain situations under which EXAT may be deemed not to be in breach under such obligations or not to be in default.

In certain situations, EXAT may be deemed not to be in breach of its obligations, or there may not be an event of default, under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, even though EXAT is not performing or able to perform certain of its obligations thereunder. In those situations, TFFIF may not be able to (a) exercise its right under the Revenue Transfer Agreement or relevant law to require EXAT to duly perform its duties under the Revenue Transfer Agreement within the required period, or compensate it for damage caused by EXAT’s breach of obligations, (b) terminate the Revenue Transfer Agreement, or (c) take any other steps to cause EXAT to compensate it for damage caused to it as a result of EXAT’s breach of obligations. For example, EXAT is exempt from delivering part or all of the Transfer Revenue, or any sum due to TFFIF, within the period specified in the Revenue Transfer Agreement if such default is attributed to the failure of the money

Thailand Future Fund 51

Annual Report 2019

transfer system, or any payment system beyond the control of EXAT. In addition, EXAT is exempt from performing any other duties under the Revenue Transfer Agreement within the period specified in the Revenue Transfer Agreement if such default is as a result of force majeure under Thai law. EXAT may stop or suspend its management and services relating to the Initial Expressways so long as this is for reasonable causes as well. Any of these circumstances could have a material adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

The Revenue Transfer Agreement provides that if certain events of default occur, EXAT will be obligated to pay TFFIF certain damages, including damages arising out of any special circumstances (if any), or in case TFFIF determines that it has suffered substantial damage caused by any such default, the Outstanding Transfer Revenue. In addition, if EXAT fails to deliver the Transfer Revenue to TFFIF within the period set out under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, EXAT shall pay TFFIF an interest rate of 7.5% per annum calculated on the amount due and not transferred in compliance with the Revenue Transfer Agreement. Such a payment by EXAT following a failure to perform or a trigger event under the Revenue Transfer Agreement may not accurately represent the full economic value of TFFIF’s investment in the Transfer Revenue and may materially and adversely affect the value of Unitholders’ investment in the Investment Units. In the event of such a default or an acceleration of toll revenue payments, there can be no assurance that EXAT will have enough liquidity or otherwise be in a position to comply with such obligations. The obligations of EXAT to make payments of certain pre-agreed amounts to TFFIF upon a default or a trigger event could be reviewed and adjusted or reduced at the discretion of a court. Any reduction in the pre-agreed amount of damages or contracted revenue that we expect to receive from EXAT would have a material adverse effect on TFFIF’s operations, financial results and position and future prospects.

4.1.10. If EXAT repudiates or denies the validity or enforceability of the Revenue Transfer Agreement at any time, or denies the binding effect of the Revenue Transfer Agreement on it, or if there are events that affect the status or capability of EXAT to perform its obligations under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, there could be a material adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

If EXAT repudiates or denies the validity or enforceability of the Revenue Transfer Agreement, or denies the binding effect of the Revenue Transfer Agreement on it, EXAT’s performance of its obligation to deliver the Transfer Revenue to TFFIF and its compliance with the terms and conditions of the Revenue Transfer Agreement could be affected. In addition, if any new legislation, rules, regulations, or orders are promulgated, or actions or lawsuits are initiated in relation to EXAT, in order to: (a) terminate, suspend, revoke or nullify any power and the duty of EXAT to carry out material aspects of its operations in relation to the Initial Expressways; (b) terminate, suspend, revoke, or nullify the power of EXAT to perform its obligations under the Revenue Transfer Agreement; or (c) expropriate or nationalize any part of EXAT’s property or any other rights relating to the property in connection with the Initial Expressways or if any legislation, rules, regulations, or orders are promulgated, or actions or lawsuits are initiated which affect the capability of EXAT to perform its obligations under the Revenue Transfer Agreement or result in a change in status of EXAT to another form of business organisation for the purpose of privatisation of state enterprises and there is no

Thailand Future Fund 52

Annual Report 2019

other juristic person or persons to accept the transfer of assets, rights, obligations and liabilities of EXAT in relation to the operation and maintenance of the Initial Expressways, TFFIF may not be able to appoint another entity to manage the Initial Expressways, which could have an adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

4.1.11. An increase in the VAT rate applicable to toll rates in Thailand that would raise the VAT in excess of 10.0% may decrease the amount of Transfer Revenue.

Under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the Net Toll Revenue will be the tolls collected from the existing routes of the Initial Expressways net of an amount calculated, in accordance with the Revenue Transfer Agreement, with reference to VAT or such relevant sum as follows: (a) 10%, if the VAT rate applicable to toll rates is less than or equal to 10.0%, or (b) the actual VAT rate applicable to the toll rates, if such VAT rate is more than 10.0%, provided that the toll rates used for the calculation of the amount pursuant to (a) or (b) are inclusive of VAT. EXAT’s obligations in relation to the deduction of such amount and the computation of the Net Toll Revenue, shall be in accordance with the method set out in the Revenue Transfer Agreement. In addition, any applicable taxes or fees assessed on the tolls collected which may be payable to any Thai government agency in the future pursuant to applicable laws shall also be deducted from the tolls for the purpose of determining the Net Toll Revenue. If the VAT rate applicable to toll rates is raised above 10.0%, Transfer Revenue to be transferred to TFFIF will decrease which could have an adverse effect on the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF.

4.1.12. TFFIF may face repayment and refinancing risks with respect to any future debt and may not be able to obtain any required future financing on commercially acceptable terms or at all.

TFFIF may require a significant amount of capital, which could be in the form of debt, in order to fund potential additional investments. To comply with the Fund Scheme and the Thai SEC Act, if TFFIF has sufficient retained earnings from the TFFIF Infrastructure Assets in any given year, it is required to pay at least 90.0% (or any other percentage as may be permitted by the Thai SEC Act from time to time) of the adjusted net profit for the year as dividend distributions to Unitholders. If TFFIF has excess cash or liquidity, it may pay distributions to Unitholders out of retained earnings, if any, or by a capital reduction. Dividend distributions may not be made in the case of a retained loss. TFFIF may also be required to repay maturing debt (if any) with funds from additional debt or equity financing, or both. If the principal amounts due for repayment at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or paid with proceeds from operating cash flows, TFFIF’s cash reserves or other capital sources, such as the issuance of new Investment Units, TFFIF will not be able to repay all maturing debt or make distributions to Unitholders, as expected.

Refinancing and additional debt or equity funding may not be available as and when required or on terms commercially acceptable to TFFIF and the Unitholders. The terms of any refinancing undertaken may be less favorable than the terms of any previous debt or cost of equity issuances and may contain covenants that may further limit or

Thailand Future Fund 53

Annual Report 2019

otherwise adversely affect its ability to make distributions to Unitholders. Such covenants may also restrict TFFIF’s ability to undertake additional investments. TFFIF is subject to a debt to equity ratio limit of no more than three times (3:1) or such other ratio as may be prescribed by the Thai SEC from time to time. If debt is incurred, TFFIF will have a debt service obligation. This obligation may increase in the future due to rising interest rates. Any failure by TFFIF to service indebtedness, maintain any required security interests or otherwise perform obligations under financing agreements could lead to a cancellation of one or more of TFFIF’s credit facilities, trigger cross default provisions that may be included in TFFIF’s financial or other agreements, penalties or acceleration of amounts due under such facilities, any or all of which may adversely affect TFFIF’s operations, financial results and position and future prospects.

4.1.13. TFFIF’s rights and the rights of Unitholders to recover claims against the Management Companies and the Fund Supervisor are limited.

4.1.14. The Independent Appraisal Reports, any underlying Reports, and the NAV of TFFIF are not opinions on the commercial merits of TFFIF or its business, nor are they opinions, expressed or implied, as to the future trading price of the Investment Units or the financial condition of TFFIF upon listing, and the valuation contained therein may not be indicative of the true value of TFFIF’s initial asset.

4.2. Risks relating to the Operations of the Initial Expressways

4.2.1. The right to the Transfer Revenue that TFFIF will acquire under the Revenue Transfer Agreement depends on the traffic volume of the Initial Expressways which may vary due to factors outside of EXAT’s control.

Upon completion of the Offering and the transfer of the Transfer Revenue under the Revenue Transfer Agreement becoming effective, the right to the Transfer Revenue will be TFFIF’s only source of income and cash flows from Infrastructure Assets. The amount of Transfer Revenue collected is largely attributable to traffic volume on and the corresponding toll revenue collected from the Initial Expressways by EXAT. Accordingly, any factor reducing traffic volume and, therefore, toll revenue from the Initial Expressways could have a material adverse effect on the Transfer Revenue collected by EXAT in the future and, in turn, TFFIF’s operations, financial results and position and future prospects. Neither TFFIF nor the Management Companies can assure Unitholders that the traffic volume on the Initial Expressways, and hence the toll revenue and consequently the Transfer Revenue, will increase or will not decrease in the future. If the traffic volume on the Initial Expressways decreases or does not increase, the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF would be adversely affected.

4.2.2. Any future revenue that TFFIF will receive depends on toll rates applicable on the Initial Expressways as well as any exemptions thereof whereby such toll rate adjustments or exemptions may depend on factors outside of EXAT’s control such as the requirements for EXAT to comply with Government policies.

The future revenue that TFFIF will receive under the Revenue Transfer Agreement depends on toll rates applicable on the Initial Expressways whose adjustment may depend

Thailand Future Fund 54

Annual Report 2019

on factors outside of EXAT’s control such as the requirements for EXAT to comply with Government policies. Under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the review of toll rates for the purposes of toll rate adjustments will commence on March 1, 2023, and further reviews are required to be conducted on each fifth anniversary thereafter. Calculations for the purpose of adjustments to toll rates of the Initial Expressways, if any, are based on a formula provided under the Revenue Transfer Agreement which takes into account the CPI for Bangkok and its vicinity (announced by the Ministry of Commerce for March of the year in which the toll rates are reviewed in comparison with the latest year of toll adjustment for each toll rate (THB per vehicle or THB per kilometer, as the case may be), provided that the index shall not be of the year prior to 2018). After the calculation, EXAT will comply with the internal procedures and processes under applicable law in order to propose the toll adjustments to the Ministry of Transport. If EXAT has taken steps to be fully in compliance with such internal procedures and processes, but there is no adjustment, or the adjustment cannot be made in full according to the calculation, or the adjustment is delayed from the period stipulated under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, EXAT shall be deemed to have fully complied with the Revenue Transfer Agreement, it will not be deemed to be in breach of the Revenue Transfer Agreement or such circumstances will not result in TFFIF having any right to any claims on damages, compensation or any surcharges from EXAT whatsoever.

4.2.3. If motorists choose alternative roads or modes of transport, traffic volume on the Initial Expressways may decrease.

Due to the highly built-up nature of Bangkok and its vicinity, new or alternative roads in the area may divert traffic away from the Initial Expressways. Furthermore, motorists may choose to travel on roads other than the Initial Expressways out of familiarity or due to cost considerations. For instance, the National Highway Route 34 (Bangna – Bang Pakong) runs parallel to the Burapha Withi Expressway.

4.2.4. If the Government or EXAT (in compliance with the Government’s policies or orders) constructs, extends or renovates roads, routes or such other transportation systems which have similar use and any part thereof runs in competition with the Initial Expressways, the traffic volume of the Initial Expressways may materially decrease.

Currently, none of the EXAT Expressways are used or runs in competition with the Initial Expressways. In addition, under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, EXAT agrees not to construct other expressways having similar usage and running similar routes alongside the Initial Expressways (save for any extensions or linkages of routes) which may materially affect or reduce the traffic volume on, or the revenue generated from the use of the Initial Expressways compared to the actual traffic volume or revenue of prior year before the existence of the competing roads. However, the Revenue Transfer Agreement does not restrict the right of the Government (including EXAT in compliance with the Government’s policies or orders) to construct or renovate roads, highways or routes that are similar to expressways, or other transportation systems which run similar routes as compared to the Initial Expressways.

Therefore, if the Government (including EXAT in compliance with the Government’s policy or order) constructs or renovates roads, highways or routes that are similar to

Thailand Future Fund 55

Annual Report 2019

expressways, or other transportation systems any part of which runs in competition with the Initial Expressways, the traffic volume of the Initial Expressways or the revenue to be generated by the use of the Initial Expressways may decrease, and this would adversely affect the operations, financial results and position and future prospects of TFFIF. In such an event, under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, EXAT is not obliged or liable to pay compensation or any other sum due to the aforesaid act of the Government (including EXAT in the case of its compliance with the Government’s policy or order)

4.2.5. The capacity of the Initial Expressways may limit traffic growth.

There are limits to the number of vehicles that can efficiently use the Initial Expressways during any given period. These limits represent the points beyond which congestion increases and levels of service begin to decline to unsustainable levels. Certain sections of the Initial Expressways, such as toll stations, entrances and exits, already reach maximum capacity during peak hours and the Burapha Withi Expressway also reaches maximum capacity during holidays when toll exemptions are not granted.

EXAT may need to undertake additional extensions in the future if the traffic volume approaches capacity in particular areas. EXAT’s may consider expansion of the Initial Expressways. However, such expansion plan may be subject to numerous factors outside its control, such as land acquisition and construction approval processes, and the availability of funding and financing on commercially satisfactory terms, or at all.

4.2.6. The capacity derived from the report on the projected traffic volume of the Traffic Consultant is calculated based on expressway structures and is dependent upon factors such as development of real estate around expressways and motorists’ behavior which could change in the future.

The capacity derived from the report on the projected traffic volume of the Traffic Consultant is calculated taking into consideration (a) the current traffic behavior during peak hours on each section of the expressway including traffic volume and the proportion of on-ramp and off-ramp traffic at each toll station, the proportion of traffic volume during peak hours at such toll stations on such sections of the expressway and the traffic volume throughout the day; and (b) the theoretical capacity, in accordance with the highway capacity manual standard, referred to in the highway capacity manual. If these factors change or the above assumptions are inaccurate, the capacity calculated by the Traffic Consultant may be inaccurate or may change, thus potentially having material and adverse effect on the traffic forecasts and transfer revenue in the report.

4.2.7. Traffic forecasts are subject to various and significant uncertainties.

The forecasts of traffic volume on the Initial Expressways were prepared by the Traffic Consultant. These forecasts were made using various analytical methodologies and include numerous assumptions considered appropriate by the Traffic Consultant. These forecasts are inherently subject to uncertainties and factors that may change over time. The forecasts are based on data collected by EXAT and compiled independently by the Traffic Consultant, which may be subject to inaccuracies and inconsistencies. As a consequence,

Thailand Future Fund 56

Annual Report 2019

actual traffic volume and patterns may differ materially from those expressed or implied therein.

4.2.8. Unforeseen events may disrupt the use of the Initial Expressways.

The use of the Initial Expressways may be interrupted or affected by a variety of events out of EXAT’s and TFFIF’s control, including serious traffic accidents, natural disasters, such as flooding and earthquakes, possible defects in design and construction, damage to the expressways, bridge collapse, road subsidence, labor disputes, strikes, protests, unscheduled maintenance and construction work, and other unforeseen circumstances and incidents. Certain of these events have affected the Initial Expressways in the past. If the use of the Initial Expressways is disrupted or interrupted in whole or in part for any period because of any such events, this could reduce EXAT’s toll revenue, and accordingly the amount of Transfer Revenue that TFFIF will receive. Under the terms of the Revenue Transfer Agreement, if there is partial damage to an Initial Expressway, EXAT is only required to pay Transfer Revenue actually collected during such period, which may be reduced due to such damage.

In addition, under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, if any or both of the Initial Expressways are totally damaged not due to the fault of EXAT and EXAT, having assessed the damage, is of the view that the reparation or restoration of the relevant parts of the Initial Expressways to their original condition is impossible or is not worthwhile, TFFIF will only have the right to receive damages and such other compensation under the insurance policies for such Initial Expressways. Such compensation under the insurance policies may be less than the revenue that TFFIF may receive had the Initial Expressways not been damaged. TFFIF does not have the right to require EXAT to repair the damaged Initial Expressways or make any other claim against EXAT. Under such circumstances, the rights and duties between parties will terminate.

4.2.9. The insurance coverage for the Initial Expressways may not be sufficient to cover all potential losses.

EXAT maintains insurance policies covering, among others, risks to EXAT monies. Under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, EXAT is required to allow TFFIF to obtain and maintain insurance with an insurance company acceptable to TFFIF, and provide reasonable assistance to TFFIF as requested by it, at TFFIF’s expense, throughout the term of the Revenue Transfer Agreement. The scope, conditions, and insured amount will be set out by TFFIF. Such an insurance coverage will include (1) industrial all risk insurance throughout the term of the Revenue Transfer Agreement, with EXAT as the insured party and TFFIF as the co-insured party and sole beneficiary; and (2) business interruption insurance in relation to property damage and political violence with TFFIF as the insured party and sole beneficiary. However, the abovementioned insurance policies will not provide coverage against the full amount of potential losses and the insurance policies may contain certain exemptions or limitations on coverage under some circumstances and some types of losses may be uninsured. Accordingly, the occurrence of any loss, liability or damage which is not so insured or insurable under insurance maintained, or which exceeds the specified maximum coverage amount and such occurrence is not EXAT’s fault which would require EXAT to be liable under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, and which has

Thailand Future Fund 57

4.3.10. The DOH can cease to permit EXAT to use the land on which the Burapha Withi Expressway is located, and EXAT would not be entitled to damages or reimbursement of expenses in such case.

4.4. Risks relating to Thailand

4.4.1. The Initial Expressways are located in Thailand and TFFIF is subject to economic, legal and regulatory uncertainties in Thailand.

7.4. TFFIF’s Distribution Payment

7.4.1. Dividend Distribution Policy

TFFIF has a dividend policy to pay dividend distributions to unitholders at least twice a year if TFFIF has sufficient retained earnings.

(a) In order to comply with the Fund Scheme and the Securities Law, if TFFIF has sufficient retained earnings in a given financial year and does not have accumulated losses, it must pay, in aggregate, not less than 90% (or any other percentage as may be permitted by the Securities Law from time to time) of its adjusted net profit for the financial year as dividend distributions to unitholders within 90 days from the end of the financial year of TFFIF or, with respect to an interim distribution payment, from the day following the end of such fiscal period, except where there is a necessary cause which prevents payment of interim distributions, in which case the Management Companies must notify the unitholders and the Thai SEC in writing accordingly, in accordance with Securities Law.

Thailand Future Fund 63

Annual Report 2019

"Adjusted net profit" means the net profit of TFFIF adjusted with the following:

(1) unrealised gain from the appraisal of the infrastructure assets of TFFIF and other adjustment items in accordance with the guidelines of the Thai SEC, to be in line with the cash basis of TFFIF;

(2) capital reserve for the repair, maintenance and improvement of the infrastructure business of TFFIF according to the plan specified in the Prospectus or notified in advance by the Management Companies to Unitholders;

(3) capital reserve for repayment of any loan of TFFIF according to the financing policy specified in the Fund Scheme or notified in advance by the Management Companies to Unitholders; and

(4) capital reserve for dividend to be distributed to the class of Unitholders who are entitled to receive the distribution before other Unitholders (if any).

In the event that TFFIF has a non-cash expense, such as an expense that is gradually amortised or an unrealised loss, TFFIF may prepare capital reserves for the items set out under (b), (c) and (d) in the amount not exceeding the amount prescribed under (b) and (c) above for each financial period less the non-cash expenses.

(b) If the TFFIF has retained earnings, TFFIF may pay dividends from such retained earnings.

(c) The Management Companies will not pay dividends if TFFIF has accumulated loss.

If the criteria for distribution payments are otherwise amended, supplemented, and/or relaxed by Securities Law, the Management Companies must proceed accordingly. In such event, it shall be deemed that approval has been obtained from Unitholders and it will not be deemed to be an amendment to the Fund Scheme.

Condition on Distribution

If the value of interim distributions per Investment Unit to be paid is lower than or equal to THB 0.10, the Management Companies reserve the right not to pay such interim distributions at that time and to bring such interim distributions forward for payment together with the payment of annual distribution, proceeding in accordance with the distribution payment criteria as specified. TFFIF will, in aggregate, pay distributions pay of at least 90.0% of the adjusted net profit.

Methods of Distribution Payment

The Management Companies will pay dividends in THB within 90 days from the end of relevant financial year or the relevant dividend distribution period or in the case of interim dividend payment, within 90 days from the end of the relevant financial period in which the dividend is distributed. If the Management Companies are not able to pay the dividends

Thailand Future Fund 64

Annual Report 2019

within such period, the Management Companies must notify the Unitholders and the Office of the SEC in writing.

The Management Companies must announce the payment of the dividends, the date of registrar book closure for dividend payment, and the rate of dividends by:

(a) publishing in at least one daily newspaper in Thailand;

(b) posting such announcement at every office or place of business of the Management Companies; and

(c) sending a notice to the Unitholders whose names appears in the registrar book as at the date of registrar book closure, the Fund Supervisor and the SET.

Only the Unitholders whose names are recorded in the registrar book at the date of the registrar book closure will be entitled to receive the dividend.

The Management Companies must pay the dividends into the bank accounts of the Unitholders or by an account payee only cheque in accordance with the list of the Unitholders and their addresses as they appear in the registrar book.

If any Unitholder does not exercise its right to receive such the dividend distributions within the statutory prescription period, the Management Companies will not utilize such dividend for any purpose other than for the benefit of TFFIF.

Return of Capital

In addition to the dividend to be received by the Unitholders in proportion to their unitholding, the Unitholders will also be entitled to receive the proceeds from the capital reduction in the event that TFFIF has excess liquidity and reduces its registered capital. There will be no reduction in or return of capital from premium.

7.4.2. Conditions and restriction on the payment of dividends distribution and the methods and procedure regarding benefits which cannot be paid out.

Restriction on Unitholders’ ability to Receive Dividends

Subject to the Investment Unit holding restrictions, if any Unitholder or Persons within the Same Group or any foreign investor holds the Investment Units in excess of the set limit, the Management Companies will not make a dividend payment to that individual or Persons within the Same Group or any foreign investor only with respect to such excess portion unless the Office of the SEC has announced otherwise.

Any Unitholder or Persons within the Same Group or any foreign investor holding Investment Units in excess of the limit are not entitled to dividends with respect to such excess portions. The relevant amount of dividends must be given to the State and all Unitholders are deemed to acknowledge and consent to this. While the Management Companies are proceeding therewith, such dividends shall be segregated from other Assets

Thailand Future Fund 65

Annual Report 2019

of TFFIF, and shall not be counted in the calculation of the NAV unless or until TFFIF is dissolved.

In paying dividends to Unitholders or Persons within the Same Group or any foreign Investor who holds the Investment Units in excess of the set limit, the Management Companies may pay the dividends to such Unitholders and Persons within the Same Group in respect of the portion of the Investment Units not exceeding the limit prorated according to the respective holding of Investment Units of each of them.

The Management Companies will proceed in accordance with the rules and procedures as set out above, unless the SEC, the Office of the SEC or the CMSB or any the relevant authority has amended, changed, announced, ordered, or approved otherwise. In such case the Management Companies must act in accordance with such the amendment, change, announcement, order or approval and such action will be deemed to be approved by the Unitholders and it shall not be deemed that the Fund Scheme has been amended.

9.4. Insider Trading

The Management Companies determined policies on the prevention of insider trading by requiring the Directors, Advisors, Executives, as well as employees to strictly comply with the insider trading policy. At the same time, the Management Companies have also prescribed rules for the prevention of insider trading as follows:

 The Management Companies put in place a Chinese Wall mechanism and an operation system to prevent leakage of TFFIF’s internal information in the operating area of an access person.

 The care and maintenance of the safety of TFFIF’s internal information on the central computer system shall be carried out in accordance with the information technology safety regulations.

 The Management Companies prescribe that the care and maintenance of the safety of TFFIF’s internal information which has been filed in printed version of the documents shall be the responsibility of employees in the access person groups.

In the event that the Management Companies are companies registered with the SET, the Management Companies’ shareholders structures are transparent, with no conflict of interest. Moreover, there is a clear separation of duties and responsibilities between the Board of Directors, the Executives and the Shareholders. Thus, there is no problem in overlapping duties and responsibilities. In the event that a member of the Board of Directors or the Executives has an interest in the issue in consideration, such person shall not attend the meeting or shall refrain from voting in order for the decision of the Board of Directors and the Executives to be fair and truly for the benefits of the Unitholders.

9.5. Investment Decision and Management of TFFIF

Given that EXAT will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Initial Expressways, pursuant to the relevant laws and the terms of the Revenue Transfer Agreement, TFFIF does not need to engage a third-party operator to run or operate the Initial Expressways. After the investment in the right to the Transfer Revenue, TFFIF will bear the risks associated with the Initial Infrastructure Assets. EXAT will not provide any guarantee relating to the operation of the Initial Expressways or the Transfer Revenue under the Revenue Transfer Agreement. However, EXAT shall manage and operate the services, collect tolls and control the collection of tolls, as well as maintain the expressways, the Expressway Systems, and permanent structures of or used in its expressways in accordance with the law and EXAT’s standards. In addition, TFFIF may deliver a written notice to EXAT to provide opinions or recommendations for EXAT to carry out any relevant actions in relation to the operations and maintenance of the Initial Expressways, if TFFIF considers it necessary or appropriate.

Moreover, if an investment is made by methods described under item (a) or (b) of the definition of “Infrastructure Assets”, TFFIF will be required to enter into an agreement with a third party operator to assign a lease to the Infrastructure Businesses or to engage such third-party operator to manage such assets or to operate the Infrastructure Businesses, given that TFFIF, as an infrastructure fund, is itself prohibited from operating Infrastructure Businesses pursuant to Tor Nor. 1/2554.

If in future TFFIF enters into, amends or terminates agreements relating to the management or procurement of benefits from Infrastructure Businesses, and such entry into, amendment or termination of such agreement has a value of more than THB 100,000,000, or 30.0% of the total assets of TFFIF at the time of the entry into, amendment or termination, TFFIF must obtain the Unitholders’ consent, except in case of entry into, amendment or termination of any agreement with a value of more than THB 100,000,000, but less than 30.0% of the total assets of TFFIF at the time of entry into, amendment or termination, which is approved by the Fund Supervisor or disclosed in the Fund Scheme. The Management Companies will calculate such value of the agreement by determining the value of all agreements every six months.

9.8. Monitoring TFFIF’s benefits

The Management Companies’ main objective is to ensure that the Unitholders receive continuing, long-term returns from the investment while considering the benefit from the development and increase in the quality of the Infrastructure Assets invested by TFFIF. The Management Companies provide guidelines and system for the monitoring and supervision of benefits from the Infrastructure Assets, including ensuring sufficient and appropriate insurance policies are taken in proportion to TFFIF’s interests in the Infrastructure Assets for protection against damages that may occur to the TFFIF. TFFIF’s investment consists of the acquisition of the Initial Infrastructure Assets. EXAT will remain the operator of the Initial Infrastructure Assets.

In the management of the Infrastructure Assets, which are the rights under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the Management Companies have provided for frequent monitoring and auditing process to ensure the correct and complete Revenue Transfer. If a mistake has been found which causes TFFIF to not receive the correct Revenue Transfer in accordance with the Revenue Transfer Agreement, the Management Companies will require the operator of the infrastructure business to correct such mistake. Moreover, the Management Companies have stated in the Revenue Transfer Agreement for operator of the infrastructure business to have the duties to report information, facts and reasons to the Management Companies without delays where there is an event or change which may affect the value of the Infrastructure Assets.

Transactions with Related Persons must follow the general conditions and rules regarding the entering into transactions with related persons prescribed by the Office of the SEC and the Thai SEC. Any transactions relating to Infrastructure Assets to be entered into between TFFIF and the MOF or between TFFIF and other Related Persons will have to be entered into under fair and appropriate conditions and in compliance with the conditions and requirements prescribed under Tor Nor. 1/2554, Sor Tor. 14/2558, Tor Nor. 45/2561, and other relevant notifications. If the MOF holds more than 10.0% of the total issued units, the MOF will be deemed a Related Person of the Fund under the Sor Tor. 14/2558. However, if the MOF is not an owner, regulator, or has no direct responsibility of businesses related to such transactions pursuant to Tor Nor.45/2561, the MOF will be able to consider and approve any transactions relating to Infrastructure Assets without being subject to the condition prohibiting a person with a conflict of interest to consider and approve the transactions. This is on condition that the Management Companies have disclosed such information in accordance with the requirements, conditions and procedures prescribed in Tor Nor. 45/2561.

Moreover, TFFIF will disclose information regarding transactions with related persons to the SET, as well as in the remarks of the Financial Statements as audited by its auditor, and in TFFIF’s annual report, with TFFIF’s risk factors relating to the investment.

14.2. Future Factors or Events that may Affect TFFIF

The traffic volume of the Initial Expressway may change, depending on various factors.

Thailand Future Fund 122

Annual Report 2019

The right to the Transfer Revenue will be TFFIF’s only source of income and cash flows from Infrastructure Assets. The amount of Transfer Revenue collected is largely attributable to traffic volume on and the corresponding toll revenue collected from the Initial Expressways by EXAT. Accordingly, any factor reducing traffic volume and, therefore, toll revenue from the Initial Expressways could have a material adverse effect on the Transfer Revenue collected by EXAT in the future and, in turn, TFFIF’s operations, financial results and position and future prospects.

Factors which influence traffic volume, many of which are beyond the control of EXAT, TFFIF and the Management Companies, include, without limitation:

1. the level of commercial, industrial and residential development in areas served by, and located in the proximity of, the Initial Expressways; 2. population growth and growth in the number of people of driving age in Thailand; 3. the general prevalence of automobile ownership in Thailand; 4. fuel prices; 5. levels of traffic congestion, including on other alternative roads; 6. changes in Government policies and regulations; 7. general economic conditions in Thailand; 8. changes in taxation; 9. the occurrence of natural disasters, such as flooding and earthquakes; 10. any political protest or rallies and terrorist threats; 11. toll rates; and 12. the availability, quality and proximity of the Initial Expressways and their connections to other road networks compared to alternative roads and other competing modes of transportation, especially rail transport systems or any future alternative modes of transportation.

Future adjustment of toll rates of the Initial Expressway

Future income that the TFFIF will receive Under the Revenue Transfer Agreement depends on the toll rates of the Initial Expressway which, in turn, depend on factors beyond EXAT’s control. Calculations for the purpose of adjustments to toll rates of the Initial Expressways are based on a formula provided under the Revenue Transfer Agreement which takes into account the CPI for Bangkok and its vicinity, announced by the Ministry of Commerce. Thus, if there is no adjustment to the toll rates, or that the adjustment cannot be done to the full amount as calculated, or there is a delay in the adjustment of the toll rates coming to effect, future income that the TFFIF will receive Under the Revenue Transfer Agreement, as well as the TFFIF’s financial results and position, will be affected.

15. Fund Supervisor’s Opinion

Kasikorn bank Public Company Limited, as the Fund Supervisor for Thailand Future Fund, is of the opinion that for the period from the 1st day of October 2018 to the 30th day of September 2019, MFC Asset Management Public Company Limited and Krungthai Asset Management Public Company Limited have reasonably and appropriately carried out their duties in the management of Thailand Future Fund in accordance with the objectives set out under the Fund Scheme and the Securities and Stock Market Act B.E. 2535.
