Shareholders and PCS Holders may elect either (1) to receive an email notification of the publication of the Corporate Communications on the Websites (the “Email Option”); or (2) to receive a printed notification letter of the publication of the Corporate Communications on the Websites.
If the Registered Shareholders and PCS Holders have selected the Email Option and for those Non-Registered Shareholders who have provided us (through HKSCC) with their email addresses, when our Company publishes any Corporate Communication on the Websites, a notification about the publication of the Corporate Communication on the Websites will be sent by email to them. If the Securities Holdershave not provided us with their email addresses or have provided invalid email addresses, a printed notification letter will be sent by post to them.
Securities Holders may at any time send a request in writing to our Company’s Hong Kong share registrar, Union Registrars Limited (by post to Suites 3301-04, 33/F., Two Chinachem Exchange Square, 338 King’s Road, North Point, Hong Kong or by email to 265-corpcomm@unionregistrars.com.hk ) to request for printed copy of the Corporate Communications. Even if the Securities Holders have received the notification but for any reason have difficulty in accessing the relevant Corporate Communications electronically, our Company will upon request send the Corporate Communications to them in printed form free of charge. Please be aware that any written request from a Securities Holder to receive Corporate Communications in printed form will expire one year from the date of receipt of the valid written request by the Hong Kong share registrar, unless it is revoked or superseded before the expiry date.
