55th Annual Report

Chairman’s Statement

Dear Honored Shareholders I am pleased to welcome you all to the 56th General Meeting to discuss the Company’s achievements for the year 2010 and its future plans. The Company has continued to perform its duties to meet the needs of the Kingdom of various oil products under continued volatility of oil prices with an average price of $ (82) per barrel of oil during the year 2010, compared with $ (62) per barrel in 2009. This had an impact on the Company’s cash flow available to finance the crude oil and petroleum products purchases . Those are the two major components in the Company’s sales’ cost. By reviewing the financial statements of the Company in 2010, we notice that the value of the Company’s sales increased by 31% to be JD (2,379) billion, compared to JD (1,818) billion in 2009, and that is due to the increase in the prices of petroleum products. However, the Company achieved a JD 15,2 million as a net profit before tax compared to JD (13,2) million in 2009,with growth of 15%. In addition in line with the increase in crude oil prices. The Company’s total assets value increased to JD (795) million compared to JD (538) million in 2009 and that was mainly due to the increase in the accounts receivable to about JD (173) million, as well as the increase in the inventory value of crude oil and other oil products to JD (73) million.

Dear Honored Shareholders The Council of Ministers decided on 15/12/2009 to suspend an earlier decision which was taken on 1/9/2009 to grant the Refinery a 15 years exclusivity period to enable it to implement the fourth expansion project. The council formed a ministerial committee to prepare the grounds for granting the exclusivity and the procedures to solicit and select the best offer. The Committee was to submit its recommendations to the Council of Ministers within one month. All other prior decision related to granting exclusivity to the Refinery are to be cancelled. Meanwhile, while waiting for the Government decision, the Company had updated the study of the feasibility of the expansion project and called on a number of international financial institutions to for the purpose of selecting one of them as a financial adviser to assist the Company in choosing the best alternative to finance the expansion project. The Company tried to contact the former Prime Minister twice in 2010 to request a meeting with the Company’s board to discuss the expansion project, but no reply was received in this regard . After ten months of issuing the above mentioned resolution, the Council of Ministers issued the waited decision on 26/10/2010, which was contrary to the earlier government directive to the committee to study the grounds for granting exclusivity rights to the Refinery and to set procedures to attract a potential partner. A new resolution was taken to go back to an earlier government’s restructuring program for the oil sector emanating from the overall strategy for the energy sector (2007 - 2020). The decision also included the following: -

Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company

1. The Petroleum Refinery Company to proceed with all the measures deemed appropriate concerning the implementation of the fourth expansion project leaving matters to the Company to determine the optimal configuration of the project and the way of funding in accordance with a license agreement to be prepared for this purpose. 2. Duly retender the “structuring of the oil market “ tender related to the ownership and operation of the marketing companies, and to participate in owning and operating the Logistics Company. The said tender was suspended earlier by the Council of Ministers’ decision which was adopted at its meeting held on 06/10/2009. The government continued to implement that policy by inviting companies interested in marketing and distribution of petroleum products. It set the date 17/4 of this year 2011 to distribute copies of the tender documents in order to select three marketing companies to buy and sell oil products in the Jordanian market. This is in line with the Government’s policy to liberalize the petroleum products market. Thus, the Government’s position could be an obstacle in the Company’s efforts to sell all the products produced at the current refining capacity, and it will not provide enough time for the Company to modernize its units to improve the quality of the products and to the recover the investment , which was estimated initially to be between (800 - 2000) million dollars depending on the size of the expansion. After a while, a new cabinet was formed. Several meetings with the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources were held. The new minister pointed out the government’s position is to enable the Company to develop and implement the refinery expansion project and that the Ministry was willing to discuss the Company requirements in this regard . The cabinet did not last long ,and a new cabinet was formed on 09/02/2011 with a new Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, who echoed the government’s position of enabling the Company, but the surprise was that the government’s approval in March 2011 for Cement companies to import fuel oil directly, rather than buy it from the refinery which may lead to a surplus in fuel oil and may force the Company to export it to world markets at a loss, as the fuel oil is about (30%) of the Company’s output because existing configuration of the refinery during the period of the concession demanded a production of fuel oil for use in electricity generation sector. The power generation sector had switched over to natural gas imported from Egypt. The Company was counting on the overall expansion’s implementation and part of its goals was to convert fuel oil into more valuable light oil products providing higher returns and sufficient profit margin. That was impeded by the government’s decisions not to grant exclusivity to the Company. The Company made its position clear in this regard to both the Prime Minister and the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources and invited the Prime Minister to visit the Company and look at its current situation and its plans for future expansion.

Dear Shareholders Should the Refinery stop production due to constrains set by the Government, this will in turn stop an important national industry and it will terminate the jobs of thousands of workers. The constrains will also obstruct the opportunity to attract investments to develop this industry that has a good added value and provide a good return on investment and strategically important for its contribution to provide economic security which can not be done by marketing companies. As a result of the former government’s decisions , the Company has returned to square one as to the beginning of the concession’s expiry period. The Company’s management and your council have consistently pointed out, in every possible way, to the government and nongovernmental agencies the negative effects of those decisions, not only on the Company,

but on the national economy and on the Kingdom’s energy supply security.

55th Annual Report

Dear Shareholders In the light of the government’s response to our orations and the clarity of its position from the Company and from petroleum products market future situation, all evidences point to the necessity of continuing the refinery as the primary security source of supplying the kingdom with energy, which makes the expansion of the refinery essential, as it is a very important strategic facility and an important national industry. The importance of its presence is for refining any oil imported by the government at preferential prices or what might be produced locally in the future, as well as to keep the Company in order to ensure not having disruption in the availability of petroleum products. This will also help in price stability against any fluctuations for consumers in cooperation with the government, and to ensure the preservation of the workforce in the Company. So the Company will spare no effort to speed up the steps for this project to secure the Company’s ability to keep pace with rapid changes in the oil products market in the Kingdom, which ensures a continuation of the Company and achieving competitive and profitable return to the shareholders.

Dear Shareholders I am pleased to inform you that, after reviewing the outcome of the Company’s performance and net profits for year 2010, the Board of Directors recommends to the General Assembly to approve the distribution of (30%) to shareholders dividend of the paid capital. In conclusion, I would like to express my thanks to our enlightened government looking forward to its cooperation and support to enable the Company achieve its mission as a strategic institution contributing in the energy supply security and to all the parties that cooperated with the Company, and specially, the Standards and Meteorology Corporation, the General Directorate of Civil Defense and all other official bodies. I would like also to express my thanks and appreciation to the Union of Petrol Filling Stations and to the owners of the filling stations themselves and to the gas distribution centers as well as the Jopetrol Lube Oil distribution centers for their continued cooperation with the Company. In addition, I would like to express my thanks and gratitude to members of the Board of Directors, The Company General Management and its employees, for their sincere efforts in serving the Company. I would like to seize this opportunity to express my deepest appreciation and gratitude for your support and trust in the management of the Company, hoping to continue in serving our Country under the patronage of His Majesty King Abdullah II, God bless him.

Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company

Fourth Expansion Project  The last expansion project for the refinery was completed in the early eighties of the last century. Consumption of oil products was doubled ever since. To meet the growing demands, the Company has resorted to increase the refining capacity during the nineties through revamps of the process units and to impor increased amounts of liquefied gas, gasoline and diesel. The expansion of the refinery has become a necessity not only to meet the growing demands of oil products, but also to help the Refinery to improve the quality of the products and to convert heavy fuel oil to high-value products for the local market such as jet fuel, diesel and gasoline since demand for heavy fuel oil is diminishing due to the use of Egyptian natural gas in the power plants. The Company has carried out a number of feasibility studies on the expansion project, which all showed that this expansion is economically feasible because the only alternative is to import products from world markets, paying the international prices added to it the delivery cost to the center of consumption, at the northern and central part of the Kingdom . After the government had granted the refinery exclusive period of fifteen years to enable it to attract a strategic partner for expansion project, the Cabinet decided on 15/12/2009 to suspend the decision of granting the exclusivity. The Cabinet formed a ministerial committee to develop recommendations to the Council of Ministers related to the grounds for granting exclusivity and the procedures to solicit and select the best offer, and to submit its recommendations to the Council of Ministers within one month from the decision’s issuance date and suspension of all decisions and actions that have been taken in this regard. On 26/10/2010 Council of Ministers decided under its resolution No. (2967) to go back to the government’s restructuring program of the oil sector emanating from the overall strategy for the energy sector (2007-2020). The decision also included the following: 1. The Petroleum Refinery Company to proceed with all the measures deemed appropriate concerning the implementation of the fourth expansion project leaving matters to the Company to determine the optimal configuration of the project and the way of funding in accordance with a license agreement to be prepared for this purpose. 2. Duly retender the “structuring of the oil market” tender related to the ownership and operation of the marketing companies, and to participate in owning and operating the Logistics Company. The said tender was suspended by earlier the Council of Ministers’ decision which was adopted at its meeting held on 06/10/2009.  The government declining to grant exclusivity after almost a year and as a result of inconsistent five years, have led to difficulties in finding and attracting a partner to implement the expansion project, as well as the difficulty of investing in it in future under the current government guidelines and circumstances, the Company was forced to change its strategy regarding the expansion . So instead of adopting a comprehensive expansion project to meet the market needs of petroleum products until 2025 with an investment cost estimated at two billion dollars, it has been studying other alternatives for the expansion, whereby improving the quality of petroleum products and converting fuel oil into high-value products without increasing refining capacity.

55th Annual Report

The proposed expansion require an investment between (800-1000) million dollars. Also, the Company has contacted several international financial institutions in preparation to select financial advisor. One of his tasks is considering the alternatives of financing this project and to advise the Company in this regard. Communication is currently going on with the Government to determine future arrangements which will enable the Company to implement this expansion and to continue providing oil products to the Kingdom to remain the major source in energy supply security.

The increase in the imported petroleum products and lube oils prices, resulted in an increase in the cost of sales. The Government continued fixing the price of LPG at JD (6.5) per cylinder during the whole year. In accordance with the arrangements that had been followed since 1983 until the expiry date of the concession on 2/3/2008, any excess or deficit achieved as a result of the Company’s activities is debited or credited to the Government account.

Accordingly, the Company signed a settlement agreement with the Jordanian Government on February 25, 2008, concerning the expiry of the concession, which was approved by its General Assembly in its extraordinary meeting dated March 22, 2008. Moreover, no final settlement has been reached regarding the provision for doubtful debts and provision for slow-moving and spoiled inventory. The recoveries from these two provisions’ balances outstanding as of the concession expiry date should be credited to the Government. In addition, the Government requires that any new or additional provisions should be agreed on with the Government according to the Ministry of Finance letter dated November 15, 2009 concerning the settlement of pending financial issues between the Government and the Company provided that these provisions are reviewed quarterly. Furthermore, the Ministry of Finance has been informed of the outstanding provisions amounts and balances with the Government as of December 31, 2010 as per the Company’s Letter No. 2/23/25/7/3365 dated March 27, 2011. No approval by the Ministry of Finance on these balances and provisions has been received as of December 31, 2010 as informed by management. Additionally, we were unable to verify these balances and the effect of not reaching a final settelment concering these balances through performing alternative audit procedures. 2. We did not receive a confirmation letter from the Ministry of Finance for the following accounts as of December 31, 2010. Moreover, we could not verfiy the Ministry of Finance’s approval of these balances through performing alternative audit procedures: December 31, 2010 JD Ministry of Finance account receivables (Note 5)

Qualified Opinion In our opinion, except for the effect of any adjustments that might have been determined to be necessary had we been able to verify the financial impact of the settlement agreement with the Government regarding the provisions mentioned in paragraph (1) above, and the impact of not being able to verify the balances of the Ministry of Finance and its approvals of the balances mentioned in paragraph (2) above, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company as of December 31, 2010, its consolidated financial performance, and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. Emphasis of Matter Paragraphs Without further qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to the following: a. As stated in Notes (2) and (22) to the consolidated financial statements, and according to the Board of Directors’ resolution No. 132/2009 dated November 15, 2009 and the approval of the Prime Ministry in its meeting held on November 24, 2009, it was agreed to settle the relationship between the Government and Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company for the year 2009 through achieving an annual income of JD 7.5 million after tax excluding the profit of the Oil Factory and the surplus from refining Iraqi oil, provided that the Government approval is obtained to record any new provisions or to increase the existing provisions. Furthermore, the Company has prepared the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 on the basis of a targeted income of JD 7.5 million after tax in addition to the profit of the Oil Factory and the Company’s share from refining Iraqi oil. This resulted in a surplus for the Government of JD 11,689,596 according to these agreements. b.As stated in Notes (2) and (11) to the consolidated financial statements, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources and the Ministry of Finance, through the Pricing Committee’s resolutions, have adjusted the prices of some petroleum derivatives which resulted in reducing the Company’s share of revenue according to the IPP prices compared to what the Company should have received according to the previously approved arrangements adopted since June 2009 and as such considering the surplus payable to the Ministry of Finance. However, the Company’s management considers that this procedure is contradicting with the Service Agreement signed between the Company by which the Government granted its approval to the Company to carryout its activities on a commercial basis. This treatment resulted in reduction of the Company’s realized profits by approximately JD 12.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 (JD 23.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009) as informed by management. Report on Legal Requirements The Company maintains proper accounting records, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements are in agreement therewith and with the financial statements presented in the Board of Directors’ report. We recommend that the General

60

Assembly of Shareholders take into consideration the effect of what is mentioned in paragraphs (1) and (2) and paragraphs (a) and (b) above when approving these consolidated financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are a translation of the original consolidated financial statements in the Arabic language to which reference should be made.

AMMAN - JORDAN NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company

JORDAN PETROLEUM REFINERY COMPANY (A PUBLIC SHAREHOLDING LIMITED COMPANY) AMMAN - JORDAN

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. General The Company was established on July 8, 1956 with a capital of JD 4 million. In 1968, the Company doubled its capital to JD 8 million, and in 1976, the capital was increased to JD 32 million. In addition to the main units of refining and producing hydrocarbon products, the Company owns four factories for the production of lube-oils, LPG cylinders, containers, and asphalt drums. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the operations of the main refining units and those of the subsidiary factories. In addition to the refining and production of hydrocarbon products, the Company transports and distributes the products to distribution stations all over the Kingdom. It is also responsible for the maintenance of these stations and the marketing of lube-oils. According to the settlement agreement signed with the Jordanian government, dated February 25, 2008 concerning the termination of the concession, the Company has to segregate some of the Company’s activities through establishing new companies wholly or partially owned by Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company after the expiry of the concession agreement on March 2, 2008. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company established two subsidiary companies wholly owned by Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company, namely: Jordan Liquid Gas Manufacturing and Packing Company and Jordan Lube-oil Manufacturing Company. These two companies have been founded in preparation of the segregation of the activities of gas packing and lubeoil manufacturing. Moreover, none of these companies has conducted any commercial activities yet. Additionally, Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company is still in the process of segregating the Company’s other activities. The Board of Directors approved the accompanying consolidated financial statements by its resolution No. (43) in its meeting held on March 28, 2011, and these financial statements are subject to the approval of the General Assembly of Shareholders.

2. The Concession Agreement On February 10, 1958, Law No. (19) of the Year 1958 was issued to ratify the concession agreement signed between the Government and the Company on November 16, 1957. According to this agreement, the Government granted the Company a concession for fifty years, giving it the exclusive right to establish and invest in facilities for

70

55th Annual Report

the refining and processing of petroleum and hydrocarbon products and derivatives thereof; to engage in the storage, distribution and selling of these products; to own and lease lands; and other rights. Furthermore, the Company is exempted from all fees and customs duties that would otherwise be charged on goods and materials imported for the Company’s operations. In accordance with the concession agreement, the Government has the right to determine and monitor the prices of oil, crude oil and products supplied for local consumption. Furthermore, the Company shall submit to the Government a detailed statement of production costs. In consultation with the Company, the Government shall specify sales prices and make, every now and then, amendments there to as necessary. However, profit including income tax shall neither exceed 16% nor be lower than 7.5% of the nominal value of the Company’s shares (taken on the basis of accounting periods of five years each). The last period started in the year 2006 and ended on March 2, 2008, the date on which the concession agreement expired. The Company together with the Ministry of Finance settled the excess earnings for the period ending in the year 2005 according to the concession agreement. The differences of JD 3.6 million have been settled from the statutory reserve in accordance with the Ministry of Finance Letter No. 18/4/10494 dated October 31, 2006. Moreover, the concession agreement expired on March 2, 2008. Accordingly, the Company signed a settlement agreement with the Government dated February 25, 2008, concerning the expiry of the concession agreement, which was approved by the Company’s General Assembly in its extraordinary meeting dated March 22, 2008. Moreover, the financial effect of some items in this agreement has not been determined nor reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as stated in (Note 32). Additionally, no final settlement has been reached regarding the provision for doubtful debts and provision for slow-moving and spoiled inventory. During the year 2009, the Company transferred an amount of JD 1,159,933 from the statutory reserve to the account of the Ministry of Finance to settle the excess earnings for the period from the beginning of the year 2006 to the expiry of the concession dated March 2, 2008. The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources and Ministry of Finance, through the Pricing Committee’s resolutions, adjusted the prices of some petroleum products. This resulted in a reduction in the Company’s share of revenue according to IPP prices compared to what the Company should have received according to the previously approved arrangements over a seven-month period starting June 2009. Moreover, the surplus is considered payable to the Ministry of Finance, contrary to what it is stated in item 4-2 of the service agreement signed between the Company and Government, which states that approval should be granted to the Company to carryout its activities on a commercial basis so that the local market petroleum derivatives prices are made according to the pricing mechanisms approved by the Governmental Petroleum Derivatives Pricing Committee based on international prices (IPP).This treatment resulted in reduction of the Company’s realized profits of approximately JD (12.8) million for the year ended December 31, 2010 JD (23.6) million for the year ended December 31, 2009. According to Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company’s Board of Directors’ resolution

71

Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company

No. 132/2009 dated November 15, 2009, the letter of the Minister of Finance No. (18/4/25741) dated November 15, 2009 was approved to settle the outstanding financial issues between the Company and both the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources on the following bases: 1. Through the petroleum derivatives pricing mechanisms, an annual profit of JD (7.5) million after tax will be achieved from refining and distribution activities taking into consideration that the change in the Company’s expenses is within the normal ratios. 2. The Lube - Oil Factory income shall be excluded from the profit referred to in item (1) above provided that it is subject to income tax. 3. The Company shall be granted an amount of (10) cents / barrel from the surplus realized by the Government as additional income from refining the Iraqi crude oil. This consideration is calculated based on the quantity of the barrels received by the Company provided that this income is subjected to income tax. 4. Agreement shall be made between the Government’s representatives and Chairman of the Audit Committee, ensuing from the Company’s Board of Directors, concerning any new provisions or the increase of the outstanding provisions. These provisions shall be reviewed quarterly. According to the Prime Ministry’s resolution in its meeting held on November 24, 2009, the above items have been approved to settle the financial relationship between the Government and Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company for the year 2009. Consequently, the Company has prepared the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 on the basis of a targeted income of JD (7.5) million. This resulted in a surplus to the Government of JD (11,689,596) according to this settlement a subsidy of JD (3,666,853) for the year 2009.

3. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements - The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and related interpretations. - The consolidated financial statements are stated in Jordanian Dinar. - The accounting policies adopted this year are consistent with those applied in the year ended December 31, 2009, except for what is stated in note (4-A). - The details of significant accounting policies are as follows: a. Basis of Consolidation of the Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, and entities under its control. Moreover, control is achieved

72

55th Annual Report when the Company has the ability to control the financial and operating policies of the subsidiary company to obtain benefits from its activities. Transactions, balances, revenues, and expenses between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated. - The financial statements of the subsidiary companies are prepared for the same fiscal year of the Company through adopting the same accounting policies of the Company. If the accounting policies adopted by the subsidiary differ from those adopted by the Company, the necessary adjustments to the subsidiary company’s financial statements are made so that its accounting policies match those of the Company. As of December 31, 2010, the Company owns the following subsidiaries:

Available-for-sale investments are stated at cost, plus acquisition expenses when acquired, and are revalued at fair value subsequently. Changes in the fair value of investments are recorded in a separate account within the statement of comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity. In case any of these investments is sold wholly or partially, or impaired, then the recorded gain or loss therefrom is transferred from shareholders’ equity to the consolidated statement of income. The impairment loss previously recorded in the consolidated statement of income can be recovered if it becomes objectively evident that the increase in fair value occurred in a period subsequent to the recording of the impairment loss. Moreover, the impairment loss of debt instruments can be recovered through the consolidated statement of income, while the impairment loss in the Company’s shares can be recovered through the cumulative change in fair value. d. Fair Value Fair value represents the closing market price of financial assets and derivatives on the date of the consolidated financial statements. In case declared market prices do not exist, active trading of some financial assets and derivatives is not available, or the market is inactive, fair value is estimated by one of several methods including the following: - Comparison with the present market value of a very similar financial instrument. - Analysis of future cash flows and discounting expected cash flows at a rate used for a similar financial instrument. - Adoption of options pricing models. The evaluation methods aim at obtaining a fair value that reflects market expectations and considers market factors and any expected risks or benefits upon valuing financial instruments. Furthermore, financial instruments the fair value of which cannot be reliably measured are stated at cost net of any impairment in their value. e. Accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value. Moreover, a provision for doubtful debts is computed according to management’s estimates, and the recoverable amounts. f. Property plant and equipment Property plant and equipment are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and impairment, and depreciated (except for land), when ready for use, according to the straight-line method over their expected operating lives at annual rates as follows:

- When the recoverable amount of any fixed asset becomes less than its net book value, its value is reduced to the recoverable amount and the impairment loss is charged to the consolidated statement of income. - The productive lives of property plant and equipment are revalued at the end of every year. If revaluation differs from previous estimates, the change is recorded in subsequent years, being a change in estimate. - Property plant and equipment are eliminated when disposed of or when no future benefits are expected from their use or disposal. g. A provision for income tax is taken through estimating the expected tax liabilities. The realized differences in estimated income tax are recorded in the consolidated statement of income when paid upon reaching a final settlement with the Income and Sales Tax Department. h. Deferred taxes are taxes expected to be paid or recovered due to temporary timing differences between the value of the assets or liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the value on the basis of which tax is calculated. Furthermore, deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method in the consolidated financial statements according to the tax rates expected to be applied at the time of settlement of the income tax liability or the recognition of the deferred tax assets. - On the consolidated financial statements date, the balance of deferred tax assets and liabilities is reviewed and reduced in case it is expected that the Company would not benefit in whole or in part from the deferred tax assets, or the tax liability is settled or no longer needed.

i. Provisions are recognized when the Company has liabilities at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position arising from previous events, settlement of these liabilities is probable, and their value can be reliably measured. j. Revenue from fuel sales is recognized upon delivery of fuel to the customer and issuance of the invoice. k. Interest is charged to the consolidated statement of income on the accrual basis. l. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in Jordanian Dinars at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Jordanian Dinars at the average exchange rates published by the Central Bank of Jordan at year-end. The resulting exchange gains or losses are taken to the consolidated statement of income. m. A provision for the replacement of damaged gas cylinders is taken based on technical studies that estimate the number of cylinders intended to be destroyed every year. n. The Company adopts the self-insurance policy for vehicles. A provision is taken against vehicles accidents equivalent to the value of the comprehensive insurance premiums of the vehicles and their cargo. o. A provision for slow-moving, idle, and spoiled goods is taken based on technical studies performed by the Company’s specialized committees. p. A provision for end-of-service indemnity is booked for any legal or contractual obligations related to end-of-service indemnity, death and disability at the end of the employees’ services according to the accumulated service terms at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position and the Company’s internal regulations. q. Accounting Estimates Preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the application of accounting polices require the Company’s management to estimate and assess some items affecting financial assets and liabilities and to disclose contingent liabilities. These estimates and assumptions also affect revenues, expenses, provisions, and changes in the fair value within the statement of comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity and require the Company’s management to estimate and assess the amounts and timing of future cash flows. The aforementioned estimates and assumptions are based on multiple factors with varying degrees of assessment and uncertainty. Moreover, the actual results may differ from the estimates due to the changes resulting from the conditions and circumstances of those estimates in the future.

76

55th Annual Report The Company’s management believes that the estimates in the consolidated financial statements are reasonable. The details are as follows: - A provision for doubtful debts and slow-moving and spoiled inventory items is taken on the basis and estimates approved by management in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs). - Income tax expense for the year is accounted for in accordance with the prevailing laws, regulations, and International Financial Reporting Standards. - Management periodically reassesses the economic useful lives of tangible assets for the purpose of calculating annual depreciation based on the general condition of these assets and the assessment of their expected useful economic lives in the future. Impairment loss (if any) is charged to the consolidated statement of income. - A provision for cylinders expected to be scrapped and replaced in the future is taken on the basis and assumptions approved by the Company’s management according to International Financial Reporting Standards. - A provision is booked for any legal or contractual obligations related to end-ofservice indemnity and death and disability according to the Company’s internal regulations. - Management frequently reviews financial assets stated at cost to estimate any decline in their value. Impairment loss (if any) is charged to the consolidated statement of income. - A provision for lawsuits raised against the Company is taken based on an approved legal study prepared by the Company’s legal consultants. According to the study, probable future risks are identified. This study is reviewed periodically. - Fair value hierarchy: The Company is required to determine and disclose the level in the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurements are categorised in their entirety, segregating fair value measurements in accordance with the levels defined in IFRS. Differentiating between Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements, i.e., assessing whether inputs are observable and whether the unobservable inputs are significant, may require judgement and a careful analysis of the inputs used to measure fair value, including consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability.

4. Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) 4.A New and revised IFRSs applied with no material effect on the financial statements: The following new and revised IFRSs have also been adopted in these financial statements. The application of these new and revised IFRSs has not had any material impact on the amounts reported for the current and prior years but may affect the accounting for future transactions or arrangements. Amendments to IFRS 1: First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards – Additional Exemptions for First-time Adopters Amendments to IFRS 2: Share-based Payment – Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions

Amendments to IFRS 5: Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations (as part of Improvements to IFRSs issued in 2008)

The amendments clarify the scope of IFRS 2, as well as the accounting for cash-settled share-based payment transactions in the separate (or individual) financial statements of an entity receiving the goods or services when another entity or shareholder has the obligation to settle the award. The amendments clarify that all the assets and liabilities of a subsidiary should be classified as held for sale when the Company is committed to a sale plan involving loss of control of that subsidiary, regardless of whether the Company will retain a non-controlling interest in the subsidiary after the sale.

Amendments to IAS 39: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement – Eligible Hedged Items

The amendments provide clarification on two aspects of hedge accounting: identifying inflation as a hedged risk or portion, and hedging with options.

IFRIC 17: Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners

The Interpretation provides guidance on the appropriate accounting treatment when an entity distributes assets other than cash as dividends to its shareholders.

IFRIC 18: Transfers of Assets from Customers

Improvements to IFRSs issued in 2009: Amendments to IAS 1: Presentation of Financial Statements (as part of Improvements to IFRSs issued in 2009)

78

The amendments provide two exemptions when adopting IFRSs for the first time relating to oil and gas assets, and the determination as to whether an arrangement contains a lease.

The Interpretation addresses the accounting by recipients for transfers of property, plant and equipment from ‘customers’ and concludes that when the item of property, plant and equipment transferred meets the definition of an asset from the perspective of the recipient, the recipient should recognise the asset at its fair value on the date of the transfer, with the credit being recognised as revenue in accordance with IAS 18 Revenue. IAS 1, IAS 23, IAS 27, IAS 32 and IAS 39. SMEs IFRS, IFRS 2, IFRS 3, IFRS7 and IFRS 8. The amendments to IAS 1 clarify that the potential settlement of a liability by the issue of equity is not relevant to its classification as current or noncurrent. This amendment has had no effect on the amounts reported in current and prior years as the Company has not previously issued instruments of this nature.

IFRS 3 (2008) has been applied in the current year prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after 1 January 2010 in accordance with the relevant transitional provisions. The application of IAS 27(2008) has not resulted in changes in the Company’s accounting policies. The principle adopted under IAS 27 that a loss of control is recognized as a disposal and re-acquisition of any retained interest at fair value is extended by consequential amendments to IAS 28. As part of Improvements to IFRSs issued in 2010, IAS 28(2008) has been amended to clarify that the amendments to IAS 28 regarding transactions where the investor loses significant influence over an associate should be applied prospectively.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments issued in November 2009 and amended in October 2010

>

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments issued in November 2009 and amended in October 2010 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and for derecognition.

>

IFRS 9 requires all recognised financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement to be subsequently measured at a mortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments held within a business model with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding, are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair values at the end of subsequent accounting periods.

> The most significant effect of IFRS 9 regarding the classification and measure-

ment of financial liabilities relates to the accounting for changes in fair value of a financial liability (designated as at fair value through profit or loss) attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability. Specifically, under IFRS 9, for financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is recognised in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Previously, under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as at fair value through profit or loss was recognised in profit or loss.

IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted. The Company’s management expects to apply IFRS 9 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the year 2011 and the application of the new Standard will not have a significant impact on amounts reported in respect of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities. However, it is not practical to provide a reasonable estimate of that effect until a detailed review has been completed. The amendments to IFRS 7: Disclosures – Transfers of Financial Assets increase The amendments to IFRS 7 titled Disclosures – Transfers of Financial Assets increase the disclosure requirements for transactions involving transfers of financial assets. These amendments are intended to provide greater transparency about risk exposures when a financial asset is transferred but the transferor retains some level of continuing exposure in the asset. The amendments also require disclosures where transfers of financial assets are not evenly distributed throughout the period.

80

55th Annual Report The directors do not anticipate that these amendments to IFRS 7 will have a significant effect on the Company’s disclosures regarding transfers of trade receivables previously affected. However, if the Company enters into other types of transfers of financial assets in the future, disclosures regarding those transfers may be affected.

IAS 24: Related Party Disclosures (as revised in 2009) modifies the definition of a related party and simplifies disclosures for government-related entities. The disclosure exemptions introduced in IAS 24 (as revised in 2009) do not affect the Company because the Company is not a government-related entity. However, disclosures regarding related party transactions and balances in these financial statements may be affected when the revised version of the Standard is applied in future accounting periods because some counterparties that did not previously meet the definition of a related party may come within the scope of the Standard.

The amendments to IAS 32: Classification of Rights Issues The amendments to IAS 32 titled Classification of Rights Issues address the classification of certain rights issues denominated in a foreign currency as either an equity instrument or as a financial liability. To date, the Company has not entered into any arrangements that would fall within the scope of the amendments. However, if the Company does enter into any rights issues within the scope of the amendments in future accounting periods, the amendments to IAS 32 will have an impact on the classification of those rights issues.

IFRIC 19: Extinguishing Financial Liability with Equity Instruments IFRIC 19 provides guidance regarding the accounting for the extinguishment of a financial liability by the issue of equity instruments. To date, the Company has not entered into transactions of this nature. However, if the Company does enter into any such transactions in the future, IFRIC 19 will affect the required accounting. In particular, under IFRIC 19, equity instruments issued under such arrangements will be measured at their fair value, and any difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the fair value of equity instruments issued will be recognised in profit or loss.

The number of gas cylinders in circulation is estimated to be (4.8) million cylinder. According to pertinent regulations, the Company will be charged with the value of replacing damaged cylinders. As a result, the Company

Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company

is building a gradual provision for the damaged cylinders to be replaced in the future. The provision balance is included in «accounts payable and other credit balances» (Note 11). c.

On July 12, 2006, and during the concession period, an accident occurred to a gas ship tanker that resulted in legal claims being filed claiming compensations at Aqaba Court of First Instance against the Company and the ship tanker›s captain by the four deceased persons’ heirs, the Ports Corporation, and the Jordanian Armed Forces. On March 11, 2009, the said court issued its verdict by holding both parties responsible, detaining the tanker, and disallowing it from traveling. The verdict was appealed at M’ain Appellate Court, which issued its final verdict on June 1, 2009, endorsing the Court of First Instance verdict, thus rendering it irrevocable. The ship owner filed an arbitration case in London claiming USD (28) million as compensation. Moreover, the Company presented its arguments on the unavailability of an arbitration agreement and the non-specialization, successively. Additionally, the ship owner filed a marine attachment lawsuit at South New York Court. In its turn, the Company granted power of attorney to international legal offices in New York and London to follow up on the attachment case and arbitration case. This resulted in the lifting off of the attachment on the Company’s funds in New York. Consequently, the above court cancelled the previous attachment decision dated October 19, 2009. At the end of the year 2009, the arbitration case in London was seized based on both parties’consents due to ongoing negotiations aimed at reconciliation between the two parties. An agreement for settlement with all parties to the accident of the Ship Ben Gas was signed at the beginning of 2011, resulting in the payment of around JD (1.6) million. Some of the cases have been dropped and some are still under settlement. Additionally, the lawsuit is at the point of ceasing the related arbitration procedures, and has not been dropped yet, and it is being followed up by the Company’s legal advisor. In light of the above, and based on the legal consultants’ opinion, the Company’s management believes that no additional provisions are needed concerning this case. Adjustment of the provision balance will be made when the need arises. There are lawsuits in courts raised against the Company claiming amounts estimated at JD (2,782,650) as of December 31, 2010. Some of the current lawsuits originated in prior years and have been filed against both the Government and the Company. The contingent liabilities arising from unsettled lawsuits have been estimated, and provisions have been taken in accounts payable and other credit balances. Based on the opinion of the Company’s management and its legal consultant, provisions booked in the accompanying consolidated financial statements concerning this matter are sufficient. d. According to the Customs Duties Law No. (20) for the year 1998, the Company’s purchases from petroleum products have been subjected to customs duties, and its sales, to sales tax in accordance with the General Sales Tax Law No. (6) for the year 1994 and its related amendments. As a result, the Company has raised its objection to the related governmental parties. In accordance with the Ministry of Finance Letter No. 18/4/2927 dated March 23, 2004,

96

the financial relationship between the Government and the Company entails that the Company should transfer the surplus in its earnings (net of both costs and shareholders’ dividends) to the Ministry of Finance. Consequently, the amounts claimed from the Company by the Department of Customs Duties, representing customs fees and sales tax on petroleum products imported by the Company for the years from 1999 until December 31, 2003, have been transferred to the General Treasury account through the weekly payments made by the Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company to the Ministry of Finance. According to the Minster of Finance’s letter No. 12/1/37/11772 dated October 30, 2005, collection of customs duties has been postponed according to the documents directly submitted by the Company and will be applied starting from the beginning of the year 2008 when due. As per the Minster of Finance’s letter No. 12/1/27/1781 dated January 27, 2008, collection of customs duties was postponed until the expiry of the concession period on March 2, 2008. Moreover, the Company’s imports from crude oil and fuel derivatives have been exempted from customs duties until December 31, 2011 according to the Prime Minister’s letter No. 12/11/4/4175 dated March 3, 2011. According to the Prime Minister’s letter No. 12/11/4/2439 dated February 7, 2008, it was agreed to impose general sales tax on unleaded fuel as stated below effective from February 8, 2008: 1. Adjust the exemption on unleaded fuel octane (90) issued according to Article (22/c) of the General Sales Tax No. (6) for the year 1994 and its amendment to become 12% subject to the general sales tax rate of 4%. 2. Cancel the exemption on unleaded fuel octane (95) according to Article (22/c) of the General Sales Tax Law mentioned above subject to the general sales tax rate of 16%. According to the recommendation of the Minister of Finance, the Ministers Council, in its meeting held on March 1, 2011, decided according to Article (149/c) of the Customs Law No. (20) for the year 1998, to approve exempting the imports of the Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company from crude oil derivatives from customs fees (unified fees) for the period from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

35. Future Expansion Plan The Board of Directors approved the fourth stage of expansion at an estimated cost of USD (1) billion in order for the Company to continue its operations and to obtain offers from a strategic partner to finance this project. During the year 2008, two offers have been received from two joint venturers. The offers were submitted provided that certain privileges are obtained from the Government. However, the Government did not agree on this matter as it contradicts the Government’s strategy to liberate the energy sector. This led to the withdrawal of important members from the two joint ventures. Consequently, the Company’s Board of Directors decided to inform the two joint ventures of the termination of negotiations in order to allow other investors who expressed their willingness to enter as partners. In addition, an alternative plan has been made to execute the project’s expansion through raising capital by the Company itself and secure the necessary funding in case efforts to attract the strategic partner fail. On April 5, 2009, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed with an investor interested in entering as a strategic partner with the Company for (3) months. During this period, the investor would study the Company’s status and discuss related matters with the Government in preparation of submitting his technical and financial offer. On July 2, 2009, the Company received a financial, technical, and legal offer from the above investor within the grace period according to the Memoradum of Understanding signed on April 5, 2009. The offer included raising the Refinery’s refining capacity to 150,000 barrels per day. The project costs are estimated at USD (2.1) billion. Moreover, the expansion project shall be financed through the investor’s subscriptions in the Company’s new shares and through obtaining the necessary funding from local and international funding resources.

The offer included a set of requirments from the Government to ensure the success of the 4th expansion project and to secure the necessary funding. Additionally, the Board of Direcotrs decided not to accept this offer in light of the issuance of the Council of Ministers’ resolution No. 5954 dated September 1, 2009 which includes approval for the Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company to invite the companies that have submitted their offers and expressed their interest in strategically partnering with the Company to execute the 4th expansion project on the basis of an exclusive ‎period of 15 years at maximum of which 5 years are for executing the Refinery’s expansion project. This is followed by (10) exclusive years after executing the 4th expansion project provided that this limited period is granted according to the agreement which shall be made between the Government and the Company according to the terms and criteria to be agreed on at that time so as to enable the Company to negotiate and attract the interested investors accordingly. Consequenlty, the financial consultant “ Citigroup” sent expression-of- interest letters to 12 investors to confirm their interest in entering as strategic partners. Their final replies were due on October 30, 2009. The deadline has been extended to November 27, 2009 due to the inadequacy of the period upon the investors’ request. On December 15, 2009, the Council of Ministers resolved to suspend implementation of resolution No. (5954) and to form a ministerial committee to study the Refinery’s measures to attract the partner and the exclusivity granting conditions. Moreover, the Ministerial Committee decided to appoint a financial ‎, legal, and technical consultant to advise the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Energy concering the exclusivity agreement and related negotiations. The Council of Ministers, in its meeting held on October 26, 2010, decided to continue the work in the government program related to restructuring the oil sector ensuing from the comprehensive strategy for the energy sector (2007 – 2020) and the acceptance of the following: 1.

To let JPRCO take the appropriate steps related to the expansion proejcet No. 4 and grant it freedom to determine the optimal structure for its project and funding method according to a special agreement to be made for this purpose.

2.

To continue the work of the tender for restructuring the oil market concerning the acquisition and operation of marketing companies and to participate in owning and operating the logistic company that was suspended according to the decision of the Council of Ministers taken in its meeting held on October 6, 2009 provided that the tender is reoffered properly. During the 2010, the Company updated the technical studies for the expansion project including several alternatives depending on the available funding for different alternatives. During September 2010, the Company approached several financing companies to obtain information on whether they are interested to work as financial consultants for the expansion project. Withdrawal of the Government to grant exclusivity after approximately one year, and the instability of the Government’s decisions for more than five years, hindered the attraction of a partner to implement the expansion and made it difficult to invest in the Company in the future given the circumstances and

disposition of the current Government directions. Accordingly, the Company had to change its strategies relating to expansion. Instead of building an expansion project that meets all the kingdom’s needs from oil derivative until the year 2025 at an investment cost of approximately USD (2) billion, expansion alternatives have been studied whereby the quality of oil products is improved and fuel oil is transformed to high value products without increasing refinery energy. This type of expansion requires an investment cost of between USD (800) million and USD one billion.
