Corporate Communication refers to any document issued or to be issued by the Company for the information or action of holders of any of its securities, including but not limited to, the directors’ report and its annual accounts together with a copy of the auditor’s report, the interim report, a notice of meeting, a circular and a proxy form.

The English and Chinese versions of all Corporate Communications of the Company are available on the website of the Company and the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (“Stock Exchange”) (collectively, the “Websites”). Shareholders and investors who would like to be notified when the Company publishes its Corporate Communications on the Stock Exchange website can register for the News Alerts service in the Market Data section of the Stock Exchange website.

Pursuant to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company may supply Corporate Communications (other than Actionable Corporate Communication) to shareholders by electronic means through the Websites (“Electronic Version”).

Where a Corporate Communication is issued to seek instructions from the Company’s registered shareholders on how they wish to exercise their rights or make an election as shareholders (“Actionable Corporate Communication”), the Actionable Corporate Communication will be individually sent by email or, if no email addresses are provided, by post to the shareholders’ addresses as they appear in the Company’s register of members. For the avoidance of doubt, Actionable Corporate Communications do not include notices of general meetings and proxy forms.

The Company will seek consent from each new registered shareholder to receiving the Electronic Version of all future Corporate Communications (other than Actionable Corporate Communications). If the Company does not receive any response from a registered shareholder indicating his/her objection to access Corporate Communications by electronic means through the Websites within a period of 28 days, such registered shareholder will be deemed to have elected the Electronic Version instead of the printed copies.

If a registered shareholder wishes to

• receive a printed copy of the latest published Corporate Communication (English, Chinese or Bilingual); or
• continue to receive future Corporate Communications issued by the Company in printed form (English, Chinese or Bilingual),

the registered shareholder may submit a request to the Company’s registrar (See “Election of Language and Means of Receipt of Corporate Communications” below for details).

Non-registered shareholders may also request to receive the Corporate Communications issued by the Company in printed form (See “Election of Language and Means of Receipt of Corporate Communications” below for details).

After the publication of the Company's Corporate Communication(s) on the Websites

• the Company will dispatch printed copies of the Corporate Communication(s) to the registered shareholders' addresses pursuant to their requests (See “Election of Language and Means of Receipt of Corporate Communications” below for details), or if consent (including deemed consent) has not been sought from them to receiving the Electronic Version of Corporate Communications, or if the Corporate Communication(s) is/are Actionable Corporate Communication(s) with no email addresses provided by such shareholder;
• a notification of publishing of the Corporate Communication(s) on the Websites will be sent to registered shareholders who have elected (or deemed to have consented to the election of) the Electronic Version, by email or, if no email addresses are provided, by post to their addresses as they appear in the Company’s register of members. If any of these registered shareholders for any reason has difficulty in accessing the relevant Corporate Communication(s) electronically, or wishes to receive printed copies, the Company will promptly upon his/her request send the printed copies to him/her free of charge; and
• a notification of publishing of the Corporate Communication(s) on the Websites will be sent by email, or if no email addresses are provided, by post (together with the Corporate Communication in printed form if requested), to non-registered shareholders whose shares in the Company (whether or not held through a broker or custodian) are kept in the Central Clearing and Settlement System (CCASS).

Registered shareholders and non-registered shareholders may at any time change their choice of language or means of receipt of Corporate Communications by giving written notice to the Company’s registrar (See “Election of Language and Means of Receipt of Corporate Communications” below for details).

Shareholders who have any queries in relation to election of language and means of receipt of Corporate Communications may call the enquiry hotline of the Company’s registrar on (852) 2980 1333 during business hours (9:00 am to 6:00 pm, Monday to Friday, excluding Hong Kong public holidays).

Election of Language and Means of Receipt of Corporate Communications

Upon publication of Corporate Communication(s) by the Company on the Websites, a registered shareholder/non-registered shareholder, who wishes to receive the relevant Corporate Communication(s) in printed form or in a language version other than his/her existing choice, may obtain and submit the relevant Request Form to the Company's registrar by post to 17thFloor, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong, or by email to 3999-ecom@hk.tricorglobal.com.

A registered shareholder or non-registered shareholder may from time to time change his/her choice of language or means of receiving Corporate Communications within a reasonable time notice in writing to the Company's registrar by completing and submitting the relevant Request Form by post to the above address, or by email to 3999-ecom@hk.tricorglobal.com. The change request will apply to the future Corporate Communications issued by the Company.

A shareholder’s request for receiving future Corporate Communications issued by the Company in printed form will remain valid unless being revoked or superseded or until expired at the end of each financial year of the Company (whichever is earlier).

The abovementioned arrangements of dissemination of Corporate Communications to the shareholders of the Company may be amended from time to time in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and applicable laws and regulations.
