3. General structure of the proposed capital reduction

The Company's current share capital is eight hundred million (800,000,000) Saudi Riyals, divided into eighty million (80,000,000) ordinary

shares with a nominal value of ten (10) Saudi Riyals per share. On 19/02/1442H (corresponding to 06/10/2020G), the Company announced

through Tadawul's website that its Board of Directors had recommended to reduce the Company's share capital from eight hundred million

(800,000,000) Saudi Riyals to seven hundred million (700,000,000) Saudi Riyals divided into seventy million (70,000,000) ordinary shares

with a nominal value of ten (10) Saudi Riyals per share.

The share capital is being reduced by 12.5% through the cancellation of ten million (10,000,000) ordinary shares of the Company's issued

shares (with a nominal value of ten (10) Saudi Riyals per share), i.e., the cancellation of one (1) share for every eight (8) shares of the

Company's issued shares. The reason behind the capital reduction, is to offset 94.7% of the Company's accumulated losses amounting to one

hundred five million, six hundred forty-three thousand, one hundred twenty-eight (105,643,128) Saudi Riyals, based on the Company's

unaudited internal financial statements for the period ending on 30/09/2020G.

The fractional shares (if any) resulting from the Company's capital reduction will be collected in one portfolio to be sold on the Saudi Stock

Exchange (Tadawul) at the prevailing price at that time. The proceeds of their sale will be distributed to the Eligible Shareholders, each

according to their ownership in such fractional shares, within thirty (30) days from the day of the Extraordinary General Assembly in which

10,000,000 ordinary shares of the Company's issued shares with a nominal value of ten (10) Saudi Riyals per share.

4. Reasons for the Board of Directors' recommendation to reduce the share capital

The main reasons for the recommendation of the Company's Board of Directors to reduce the share capital are as follows:

o Offset most of the Company's accumulated losses (i.e. 94.7%), based on the Company's unaudited internal financial statements for the period ending

on 30/09/2020G, amounting to 105,643,128 Saudi Riyals, which represent 13.2% of its share capital.

o Support the Company's 2021G strategic plan, as it will assist to achieve the following:

Increase the possibility of the Company being entrusted to provide insurance services to major companies within various sectors and becoming

eligible to enter into large tenders, after reducing the accumulated losses according to the Company's unaudited internal financial statements

for the period ending on 30/09/2020G.

Support the Company's future dividends distribution and its employee share scheme.

5. Evolution of the Company's accumulated losses

The following table summarizes the evolution of the accumulated losses in chronological order since 2013G:

Financial year Share capital

(SAR’000)

Accumulated losses

(SAR’000)

Percentage of

accumulated losses

of share capital

Reason for the increase/decrease of the accumulated losses

2013G 1,000,000 (159,695) 15.97% The reason for the increase in accumulated losses was due to the increase in Net Claims Incurred

by 45%, which was a result of the increase in net claims provisions based on the actuary's

recommendations.

2014G 1,000,000 19,990 - The reason for the decrease in accumulated losses was due to the increase in Net Insurance

Premiums Earned by 20%, which resulted from the change in the Company's pricing policy, as

the pricing policy applied in the previous year led the Company to incur high losses, especially

in the health insurance sector, which led the Company to review the pricing policy.

2015G 1,000,000 (249,265) 24.93% The Company incurred losses during 2015G amounting to (261,267) thousand Saudi Riyals. The

losses are due to the increase in Net Claims Incurred by 25% as a result of the increase in net

claims provisions according to the actuary's recommendations, and the increase in general

expenses as a result of the increase in Withholding Tax expenses.

2016G 1,000,000 (232,171) 23.22% The reason for the decrease in accumulated losses was due to the decrease in Net Claims Incurred

by 25% as a result of the decrease in net claims provisions.

2017G 400,000 (40,777) 10.19% The Company incurred losses during 2017G amounting to (388,026) thousand Saudi Riyals. The

losses are due to a decrease in net underwriting results by 57% due to the decrease in Net Written

Insurance Premiums and the increase in the net loss percentage of insurance policies by 5%. The

Company also enhanced the provision for doubtful debts by 295 million Saudi Riyals, including

Page 16: Shareholders’ Circular [ ]

14

the following: a 240 million Saudi Riyals allowance for doubtful debts from reinsurance

transactions balances and premiums for policyholders, and a 55 million Saudi Riyals allowance

for doubtful debts from related party transactions. In addition, since the Company ceased using

its ERP IT system and commenced the selection process for a new and suitable IT system for the

Company, the Company wrote off the ERP system, with a value of 26 million Saudi Riyals,

which negatively affected the Company's solvency margin.

The Company's share capital was also reduced from 1,000,000 thousand Saudi Riyals to 400,000

thousand Saudi Riyals by canceling 60,000 thousand ordinary shares with a nominal value of ten

(10) Saudi Riyals per share, to offset the accumulated losses. The accumulated losses in the

second quarter of 2017G amounted to (733,970) thousand Saudi Riyals constituting 73% of the

Company’s total share capital, and 82% of the total accumulated losses were offset.

2018G 800,000 (259,606) 32.45% The increase in accumulated losses was due to the decrease in underwriting revenues by 86.7%,

which led the Company incur a net loss before zakat and tax amounting to 205 million Saudi

Riyals.

2019G 800,000 (256,482) 32.06% Accumulated losses decreased due to the decrease in the premium deficit reserve, according to

the actuary's recommendation, by an amount of 21 million Saudi Riyals, equal to 40%, in

addition to the increase in the net underwriting results by 214%.

31 March 2020G 800,000 (252,248) 31.53% Accumulated losses decreased due to the increase in net underwriting results by 43% resulting

from the increase in Net Written Insurance Premiums.

31 June 2020G 800,000 (109,262) 13.66% In the second quarter of 2020G, the accumulated losses decreased to (229,262) thousand Saudi

Riyals compared to (252,248) thousand Saudi Riyals in the first quarter of 2020G, due to the

increase in net underwriting results by 20%.

In addition, 120 million Saudi Riyals was offset from the statutory reserve to cover part of the

Company's accumulated losses in the second quarter of 2020G reaching (109,262) thousand

Saudi Riyals of accumulated losses, representing 13.7% of the Company's share capital.

30 September

2020G

800,000 (105,643) 13.21% Accumulated losses decreased in the third quarter of 2020G due to the income earned from

6. Expected future reform plan and steps taken to prevent losses

The Company’s Board of Directors recommended in its decision issued on 18/02/1442H (corresponding to 05/10/2020G) reducing the Company's share capital from

800,000,000 Saudi Riyals to 700,000,000 Saudi Riyals. The Board of Directors believes that this decision is in the interest of the Company and its shareholders. In order

to enhance the Company's solvency margin and support the expansion of its activities, the Board of Directors recommended increasing the Company's share capital

after it was reduced through a rights issue by 350,000,000 Saudi Riyals, so that the Company's share capital becomes 1,050,000,000 Saudi Riyals, after obtaining the

approval of the Saudi Central Bank, the Capital Market Authority, Tadawul, and the Extraordinary General Assembly.

In 2018G, the Company developed a new strategy to enhance its financial and administrative performance. It is called the 2019–2022G Transformation Strategy,

which will contribute to achieving the following:

Increasing customer satisfaction during and after signing or before and after obtaining insurance services, and working toward ongoing communication with

customers to secure their loyalty by following a customer-centric methodology, where the focus is on the customer's experience and harnessing all services

necessary for MEDGULF customers to obtain the highest levels of satisfaction for the services provided to them.

Improving the solvency margin, the profitability of insurance services, and covering accumulated losses by enhancing the Company's capabilities to build a

profitable insurance portfolio, excluding the Company's sources of loss and attracting a segment of customers that contribute to increasing annual profits.

Strengthening governance, ensuring compliance and managing risks.

Developing the Company and meeting the regulations of the Saudi Central Bank by relying on multiple strategies prepared by various experts that focus on all

of the Company's activities and customer segments.

In order to achieve this strategy, the Company will adopt the necessary corrective measures, including, but not limited to:

Developing the best talent at the senior management level to implement this strategy.

Building a work environment that is in line with the Company's strategic direction that distinguishes and rewards the best talents.

Developing and implementing the best work procedures and technology at the Company.

Redesigning the applied policies and procedures and enhancing the capabilities of the Company's financial management department, while enabling cost

allocation.

Improving the Company's business image to reflect change and attract new customers.

7. The capital reduction and its impact on shareholders

The Company intends to reduce its share capital from eight hundred million (800,000,000) Saudi Riyals to seven hundred million (700,000,000) Saudi Riyals, a decrease

of 12.5%, thus reducing the number of the Company's shares from eighty million (80,000,000) ordinary shares to seventy million (70,000,000) ordinary shares. This

means that the reduction ratio will be one (1) share for every eight (8) shares.

The reduction of the Company's share capital is mainly to offset most of the Company's accumulated losses, based on the Company's unaudited internal financial

statements for the period ending 30/09/2020G, by the amount of shares canceled amounting to one hundred million (100,000,000) Saudi Riyals. The accumulated losses

of five million, six hundred forty-three thousand, one hundred twenty-eight (5,643,128) Saudi Riyals will represent 0.8% of the Company's share capital after the

reduction is completed.

Fractional shares (if any) resulting from the capital reduction will be collected in one portfolio to be sold on Tadawul at the prevailing price at the time, and the proceeds

of their sale will be distributed to the Eligible Shareholders, each according to their ownership in the fractional shares, within thirty (30) days from the date of the

Extraordinary General Assembly in which the shareholder approve the capital reduction.

The reduction of the Company's share capital will not affect the market value of the Company's shareholder portfolios, as evidenced by the hypothetical table below:

8. The impact of the capital reduction on the Company's operations, obligations, and shareholders' equity

The capital reduction has no effect on the Company's operations, obligations, and shareholders' equity, as reducing the share capital by canceling ten million (10,000,000)

of the Company's ordinary shares with a nominal value of ten (10) Saudi Riyals per share is just an entry in the Company's books to write off most of the accumulated

losses by transferring 100,000,000 Saudi Riyals from the share capital account to the accumulated loss account, according to the report of the auditor.

Details of the impact of the capital reduction on shareholders’ shares and accumulated losses based on the Company's unaudited internal financial statements for the

9. Potential risks

The capital reduction aims to offset the accumulated losses, which will strengthen the Company's financial position and maintain its continuity. As previously
