• if the company does not possess the email address of a shareholder or the email address provided is not functional*, printed copies of the actionable corporate communications will be provided to such shareholder by post to the shareholder’s address as it appears in the company’s register of members along with a request for a functional email address for future disseminations.

2. corporate communications

• the english and chinese versions of corporate communications are available on the company’s website () and the hkexnews website ().

• the shareholders are encouraged to proactively monitor the availability of all future corporate communications on the above websites and access the website version of corporate communications by themselves.
