The following are the key players in ensuring the application of good governance
practices and policies within Meralco:
A. Shareholders
One who owns shares of stock in a corporation or mutual fund. For corporations,
along with the ownership comes a right to declared dividends and the right to vote on
certain company matters, including the board of directors. Shareholders are a
company's owners. They have the potential to profit if the company does well, but that
comes with the potential to lose if the company does poorly. A shareholder may also be
referred
to
as
a
"stockholder".
B. Board of Directors
The Board is primarily responsible for the governance of Meralco. Corollary to
setting the policies for the accomplishment of the corporate objectives, the Board also
provides an independent oversight on Management. The Board establishes Meralcos
vision, mission, strategic objectives, policies and procedures that guide its activities,
including the mechanisms for effective monitoring of Managements performance. The
Board also ensures that internal control mechanisms for good governance are
adequate.

C. Board Committees
The Board of Directors shall form Board Committees to aid in ensuring
compliance with the principles of good corporate governance. The members of such
Committees shall be appointed by the Board of Directors annually.
All committees have approved charters defining and specifying the scope of their
responsibilities.

E. External Auditor
There was appointed an independent external auditor of the Company, through
the approval of the shareholders in the Annual General Meeting. The appointment is in
accordance with the SEC regulation on the qualification of external auditors.
The AuditCom ensures that the independence of the external auditors is
maintained. In line with this, the AuditCom does not allow engagement of external
auditor in any non-audit work that (i) will conflict with their duties or (ii) may impair or
pose a threat to their independence. Any non-audit work, if allowed, is disclosed in the
Meralco Annual Report.
F. Internal Auditor
The internal audit activities conform to the concepts and principles enunciated in
the definition of internal auditing as an independent, objective assurance and consulting
activity designed to add value and improve an organizations operations. Internal audit
services are performed in accordance with the International Standards for the
Professional Practice of Internal Auditing. The internal audit group is led by a chief audit
executive and includes 23 other staff with professional qualifications, which include

Accountants. The tasks of the internal audit group are set out in the Corporate Audit
Charter and the Code of Corporate Governance of Meralco. To provide for
independence of the internal audit group, the chief audit executive reports functionally to
the AuditCom and administratively to the President and CEO in a manner outlined in the
Corporate Audit Charter.
