AMARVELLOUS TRANSFORMATION

A NOTE FROM THE CEO

INTRODUCING TPC KUALA LUMPUR – PGA TOUR’S ONLY TPC IN ASIA

Classic; thus stamping us as the only club in the world that successfully hosted the European, LPGA and PGA TOUR all within one year between 2013 and 2015. Not an easy feat considering the strict standards set by all three PGA TOUR, European Tour and LPGA agrono-mists.

These tournaments have further raised the profile of KLGCC and Malaysia on the world map of golf, opened doors for numerous awards and recognition and thus attracted a notable list of men and women professional golfers. These include Phil Mickelson, Lee Westwood, Ricky Fowler, Sergio Garcia, Bubba Watson, Ernie Els, Adam Scott, Lydia Ko, Lexi Thompson, Shanshan Feng, Jessica Korda, Inbee Park, Michelle Wie and many more.

So now, KLGCC is ready to embark on a quantum leap. We are ready to be among the world’s best. We are ready to become the very first Tournament Players Club (TPC) in Southeast Asia – known as TPC Kuala Lumpur.

For members who are not yet familiar, TPC is a network of high quality tournament-grade golf courses operated by the PGA TOUR which is the biggest brand in golf. TPCs are built for the capacity to accommodate large crowds during major tournaments. There are a total of 34 TPCs currently and most of them are located in North America.

Partnering with PGA TOUR as a TPC is a win-win situation. TPC Kuala Lumpur certainly fits the TPC/

A big THANKS to members who attended the TPC KUALA LUMPUR briefing session on 8 August 2016. More importantly, thank you for the great support and wonderful encouragement over the years. For the benefit of members who were unable to attend the briefing session, it is my pleasure to share with you in this dossier; on the exciting transformation that KLGCC is embarking on.

Sime Darby Property‘s vision as a committed proprietor of this Club is to consistently exceed expectations in maintaining an exclusive country club with world class golf and lifestyle experiences.

While KLGCC may already be at the summit among golf clubs in Malaysia, we are not content to rest on our laurels. Instead, we are committed to continuously im-prove and exceed our stakeholder’s expectations. This long-awaited announcement aspires to elevate KLGCC to an indomitable position, enhance our membership value and at the same time contribute to the greater appreciation of the realty within the vicinity. In short, we want to be among the world’s best.

This year, KLGCC celebrates its 25th anniversary. Considering the fact that we are a fairly young club, we have made quite an impact in the world of golf.

The saying, “Rome was not built in a day” is so true for us. Preparations at KLGCC have already begun years ago in every aspect of the club starting with the golf courses. The East and West Courses went through ex-tensive renovations upon its acquisition by Sime Darby Property in the late 90s. Numerous improvements have been introduced to course conditions, golf operations and club facilities. KLGCC’s clubhouse also underwent a major makeover and is today an opulent architec-ture marvel equipped with some of the best facilities. KLGCC’s journey in propagating golf has defined new standards for Malaysia’s golf and country clubs.

Following the complete makeover, KLGCC which is strategically set within the green lung of Kuala Lumpur just eight kilometres from the heart of the city; has been primed to stage major international golf tournaments.

Three of the most notable tournaments are the Maybank Malaysian Open, Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia and CIMB

PGA TOUR tournament standards and has even exceeded the requirement by successfully hosting three international tournaments in one single year.

As part of the TPC network, members will also enjoy additional access to other TPC clubs including the renowned TPC Sawgrass, PGA West and TPC Harding Park. Your TPC Kuala Lumpur membership value will certainly appreciate due to the massive international brand associations.

Members can expect to see change in better quality brand standards, services and facilities within the clubhouse with this transformation. These also include the areas of golf operations, club management, human capital development, food and beverage as well as leisure management services. We also envision that TPC Kuala Lumpur will be a catalyst to further promote Malaysia as a tropical paradise for sports and leisure to the world.

Most clubs are managed independently and more often than not, the quality and standard of services are inconsistent. Through a strategic partnership with one of the best clubs or hospitality network such as the TPC, we will have direct access to the latest industry trends and support from like-minded hospitality professionals.

While the club dearly appreciates our current membership profile, we also want to attract the younger generation and their families to be members of this prestigious club. Plans to beef up women and children’s activities as well as the Gen-Y interests are underway. One event which kicked off earlier in March was the inaugural staging of the BMW Malaysian Open – an international women’s tennis tournament that will hopefully pave the way for more spectacular events to be held at TPC Kuala Lumpur. We are looking forward to attract a more wholesome and balanced membership profile and to position this Club as the club of choice in the region.

The TPC Kuala Lumpur official announcement to the public falls on 24 August 2016. Let’s welcome the dawn of a new era at this amazing club, I take this opportunity to extend my appreciation to all members for the great pride that they have in this club.

If you have any queries about TPC Kuala Lumpur, we have specifically set up an email: tpckl@simedarby.com for you to write to us. We will address every query or request diligently.

In the meantime, enclosed are some additional information and a set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on TPC Kuala Lumpur for your reading pleasure.

Thanks again and my best regards.

Yours sincerely,

(STEVEN THIELKE) Chief Executive Officer

The TPC Network is part of the PGA TOUR and was established to provide the ultimate host venues for TOUR events - with services and amenities that met the highest standards of professional golf. Not only do the principles of excellence apply to the TOUR professionals playing our courses, they also apply to our members and guests who enjoy every aspect of TPC clubs.

3. What is TPC Kuala Lumpur?TPC Kuala Lumpur is the new brand for KLGCC but the legal entity and company business registration will remain as Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club Berhad.

TPC Kuala Lumpur is globally recognised as the only TPC in Asia. It fits the strict requirement of a TPC with a full-fledged tournament-standard golf facilities; plus having hosted a PGA TOUR event in the form of the CIMB Classic. The TPC Kuala Lumpur brand licensing prevails for 5 years after which is subject to renewal for another 5 years.

4. Is KLGCC sold to another company? No. The club is still under the ownership of Sime Darby Property.

5. Will members be burdened by any TPC Kuala Lumpur related cost? There will be no increase in fees related to TPC. However, the regular annual increment on subscription fees, F&B and golf will apply.

6. Why does KLGCC want to be part of the TPC network?KLGCC is already well-known in Malaysia. We’ve had some international exposure through hosting major golf tournaments. The next step is to further elevate the club to global recognition and standards. Partnering with PGA TOUR as a TPC is a win-win combination.

TPC Kuala Lumpur will be the first and the only current TPC property in Asia, and this reinforces our position as a world class and tournament standard golf course with world class facilities and services. For PGA TOUR, TPC Kuala Lumpur may be a stepping stone for more TPCs to emerge in Asia.

With the global recognition and direct association with a renowned brand like PGA TOUR, TPC Kuala Lumpur and its surrounding realty would naturally attract more international investors.

raise that standard of our club to be among the best in the world.

7. If TPC is such a huge brand, how come other golf clubs in Asia are not rushing in to be part of the TPC network too? Foresight and Visionary Leadership - Sime Darby Property and KLGCC Berhad’s vision as a committed proprietor to consistently exceed expectations in maintaining an exclusive country club with world class golf and lifestyle experiences. The association with TPC branding will elevate TPC Kuala Lumpur’s status to a whole new level internationally.

Sustainable Resources - TPC Kuala Lumpur’s proprietor is Sime Darby Property, one of the biggest property developer in Malaysia that has the necessary resources to leverage on expanding the company’s brand internationally, in partner-ship with the PGA TOUR.

Strict Standards Compliance - TPC Kuala Lumpur certainly meets the TPC/PGA TOUR tournament standards and has even exceeded the requirement by successfully hosting three international tournaments in one single year namely CIMB Classic, Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia and Maybank Malaysian Open; for three consecutive years between 2013 and 2015. The Club will however need to improve on standards and facilities in certain areas to meet the high TPC stan-dards.

8. What is the standard criteria for a golf club to be part of the TPC network?TPCs are known for their outstanding conditions and amenities, as well as commitment to environmental excellence. Each TPC has hosted or been designed to host Tour-sponsored golf tournaments. It presents a unique value to the general golf public, inviting them to experience golf in a manner previously enjoyed only by golf professionals.

TPC Kuala Lumpur meets the TPC/PGA TOUR tournament standards and has even exceeded the requirement by successfully hosting three international tournaments in one single year.

9. Will the club be expecting more American professional golf players coming to the club? We are hoping to attract more US professional golfers to TPC Kuala Lumpur but we are also aware that the US is almost 16, 000 km away from Kuala Lumpur. Hence, it is unlikely to receive many US Pros. On the other hand, TPC Kuala Lumpur members will enjoy additional access to 34 clubs including the renowned TPC Sawgrass, PGA West and TPC Harding Park.

10. Will this lead to the increase of traffic at the club? We may expect some TPC network members to visit TPC Kuala Lumpur while they are in this region but what we foresee more is; our members will leverage on the opportunity to play at any of the new extensive addition of the affiliated clubs under TPC network.

11. When will TPC Kuala Lumpur be publicly announced? An announcement of TPC Kuala Lumpur will be made on 24 August 2016.

12. Will members be charged for the new TPC Kuala Lumpur membership card and car sticker(s)? Members will not be charged for membership card and sticker.

PRESS RELEASE16 August 2016

CIMB Extends Commitment to CIMB Classic through 2020Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: CIMB Group, the title sponsor of CIMB Classic since its inception in

2010, today announced the extension of its title sponsorship of the golf tournament through 2020.

The four-year extension reflects the success of the only official PGA TOUR FedExCup event in Southeast Asia, which is also the richest in the region with a purse of USD7 million. Since it was

first staged, the tournament has attracted world class professionals like Tiger Woods, Henrik Stenson, Adam Scott, Sergio Garcia, Ernie Els and Ryo Ishikawa. CIMB Classic, being one of

most prestigious and biggest sporting events in the region, has undoubtedly boosted Malaysia’s

position as a golfing tourism destination, attracting an audience from all over Asia annually.

Speaking at the press conference, Tengku Dato’ Sri Zafrul Aziz, Group Chief Executive, CIMB

Group commented, “CIMB Classic has firmly placed Malaysia on the PGA TOUR calendar, and we are pleased to continue our title sponsorship of the tournament, which has grown from strength

to strength over the last six years. Today’s announcement is a clear demonstration of the Group’s

appreciation to PGA TOUR and our firm commitment to further develop CIMB Classic into a top golf event not only in Malaysia but also in ASEAN. The tournament continues to generate quite a

following and we will continue to deliver an exceptional experience for players and fans alike.”

“Since its inception six years ago, the CIMB Classic has established an important international

presence for the TOUR during the early portion of the FedExCup schedule,” PGA TOUR

Commissioner Tim Finchem said. “As a preeminent banking institution in Southeast Asia that is

headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, CIMB has provided the critical support needed for the tournament

to develop and prosper. I had the opportunity to attend the CIMB Classic last year and was very

impressed not only by what I saw, but by the potential it has for future growth. We are thrilled that

CIMB will continue its sponsorship and we look forward to working with CIMB on continuing and

strengthening our successful presence in Malaysia.”

The CIMB Classic was introduced in 2010 as an unofficial event before becoming a FedExCup tournament in 2013. Co-sanctioned by the Asian Tour and Professional Golf Association of

Malaysia, it is held at the Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club and features a limited field of 78 players. Qualifiers include the top 60 available players from the previous season’s FedExCup Points list, the top-10 available money leaders from the Asian Tour Order of Merit and eight

sponsor exemptions, which include two Malaysians.

Justin Thomas of the United States is the reigning champion. The upcoming CIMB Classic will be

held from 20 - 23 October and is the second tournament of the 2016-17 PGA TOUR schedule.
