A proxy need not be a Member but must be present in person at the Meeting to represent the Member.

If you are not able to attend and vote at the Meeting in person, you are requested to complete and return the accompanying form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon. Completion and return of a form of proxy will not preclude a Member from attending in person and voting at the Meeting or its adjournment should he/she/it so wish. In such event, the form of proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.

  3. In order to be valid, the form of proxy must be deposited together with a power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is signed or a notarially certified copy of that power or authority, at the offices of the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the Meeting (i.e. by 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, 13 January 2021) or its adjourned meeting.

  4. Where there are joint holders of any Share, any one of such joint holders may vote at the Meeting, either in person or by proxy, in respect of such Share as if he/she/it was solely entitled thereto; but should more than one of such joint holders be present at the Meeting in person or by proxy, that one of the said joint holders so present whose name stands first on the register of Members in respect of such Share(s) shall alone be entitled to vote in respect thereof.
