To the KLN Shareholders
Dear Sir or Madam
DECLARATION OF SPECIAL INTERIM DIVIDEND BY WAY OF DISTRIBUTION IN SPECIE OF SHARES OF KERRY EXPRESS (THAILAND) PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED
1. INTRODUCTION
Reference is made to the First Announcement. On 29 December 2023, the Board resolved to declare a special interim dividend, conditional upon the satisfaction of the Condition, to be effected by way of a distribution in specie of 907,200,000 KEX Shares (representing approximately 52.1% of all issued KEX Shares) indirectly held by the Company to Qualifying Shareholders whose names appear on the Registers of Members on the Record Date, in proportion to their then respective shareholdings in the Company.
– 7 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Reference is further made to the Second Announcement. On 5 February 2024, the Condition was satisfied and the Distribution became unconditional.
On 13 February 2024, the KEX Offer was launched by the Offeror.
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with further information relating to the Distribution and the KEX Offer.
2. THE DISTRIBUTION
Qualifying Shareholders will be entitled to 0.5019 of a KEX Share for every one KLN Share held on the Record Date.
KEX is an indirect subsidiary of the Company and KEX Shares are listed on theThailand Stock Exchange (stock symbol: KEX). Upon completion of the Distribution, the Company will no longer hold any KEX Shares and KEX will cease to be an indirect subsidiary of the Company.
For referenceonly, basedonthe closing priceofTHB5.45 (equivalentto approximately HK$1.18) per KEXShare as traded on the Thailand Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date, the aggregate market value of the KEX Shares to be distributed under the Distribution is approximately HK$1,068 million, which is equivalent to approximately HK$0.59 per KLN Share. The final aggregate market value of the Distribution will be based on the closing price of KEX Shares on the Distribution Closing Date.
KEX Shares to be distributed under the Distribution are fully paid and will be distributed free of encumbrance.
The number of KEXShares to which aQualifyingShareholder is entitled under the Distribution will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Fractions of KEX Shares will not be distributed to Qualifying Shareholders, and will be aggregated and tendered under the KEX Offer by the Company and/or Kerry Thailand for their own benefit.
2.1. Thai Code implications
Pursuant to theThai Code, a mandatory tender offer is required to be extended for all securities of a company listedontheThailandStock Exchange andto all securities holdersof such listed company, if an acquisitionof interest would cause the voting rights held by a shareholder (acting alone or with its related persons, concert parties, or related persons of the concert parties, all as defined under theThai Code) to reach or cross the prescribed threshold of 25%, 50% or 75%.
2.2. Condition to the Distribution
Since the KEX Shares to be distributed under the Distribution are held in the name of Kerry Thailand, the Company and KerryThailand will enter into a share purchase agreement with respect to the acquisition of such KEX Shares (the “ SPA ”) so as to provide the Company a right to direct the transfer of KEX Shares to KLN Shareholders for implementing the Distribution.
– 8 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
In such case, the Company is considered to have triggered tender offer obligations under theThai Code (unless waived) on two occasions: (i) on approval of the Distribution by the Board and the publication of the First Announcement, and (ii) when theCompany and KerryThailand enter into the SPA in order to effect the Distribution. In the case of (i), the Company is deemed to have obtained rights over KEX DIS Shares and is therefore deemed as having made a public announcement of a business takeover, thereby triggering an obligation to make a voluntary tender offer in relation to KEX under theThai Code. In the case of (ii), the Company is deemed to have acquired KEX DIS Shares by entering into the SPA despite it not being the recipient or transferee of any such KEX DIS Shares, thereby triggering an obligation to make a mandatory tender offer in relation to KEX under the Thai Code.
If the Company were to proceed with the said tender offer(s) as required under the Thai Code, it would contradictthe intentionofthe Distribution.TheCompany hastherefore sought, andthe Distribution is subjecttothe Company obtaining, a waiverfromThaiSEC in respect of its tender offer obligations arising out of the Distribution as described above, pursuant to the Thai Code (the “ Condition ”).
As disclosed in the Second Announcement, the Company obtained a waiver from Thai SEC in respect of the aforesaid tender offer obligations on 5 February 2024, subject to the conditions that (i) the Company must procure the Offeror to perform a tender offer for all securities of KEX until completion, on conditions and at a price not less favourable than those that would have been extended by the Company had it proceeded with the tender offers, to provide an opportunity for KEX Shareholders to decide on the matter regarding their holding of KEX’s securities and (ii) the Company must procure KEX to publish an announcement informing investors of (i). The Company confirms that both (i) and (ii) have been satisfied. Accordingly, the Condition has been fulfilled and the Distribution has become unconditional.
3. KEX OFFER
S.F. Holding is a controlling shareholder of KLN and as at the Record Date, indirectly held (through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, FHHL) approximately 51.5% of all issued KLN Shares. FHHL will therefore be entitled to receiveanaggregateof467,373,855KEXSharesundertheDistribution,whichrepresentsapproximately26.8%ofall issued KEX Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.
As advised by FHHL, it intends to transfer all of the KEX DIS Shares to be received by it under the Distribution totheOfferoronthe samedaythatthey are received.Accordingly,theOfferor will be requiredto make a mandatory tender offer to acquire all KEX Shares (other than the Offeror’s KEX Shares) in accordance with the requirements of the Thai Code.
3.1. Launch of the KEX Offer
SF Holding HK, FHHL and the Offeror jointly undertook to the Company (the “ Offeror Undertaking ”) that, subject to the satisfaction of the Condition, (i) each of FHHL and SF Thai SPV will execute, submit and provide all requisitedocumentsfor receiving its KEX DISSharesfromtheCompany and/or KerryThailand in accordancewiththe procedures set out in the announcements and circulars to be issued by the Company regarding the Distribution, and (ii) the Offeror will make the KEX Offer at the KEX Offer Price to acquire all issued KEX Shares (other than the Offeror’s KEXShares)from KEXShareholdersonterms in compliancewith all applicable requirements undertheThai Code.

Qualifying Minority Shareholders should be aware that KEX Shares can only be traded on the Thailand Stock Exchange in scripless form via a securities trading account and not an Account 600. Therefore, Qualifying Minority Shareholders who wish to trade KEX DIS Shares in the future will need to make further arrangements with a SET member brokerto havethe KEX DISShareswithdrawnfromtheirAccount 600 andtransferredto a securitiestrading account opened with the SET member broker, before they are able to trade such KEX DIS Shares on market.
To assist Qualifying Minority Shareholders who elect Option 1 (Shares) to trade their KEX DIS Shares on the Thailand Stock Exchange in the future, the Company has appointed MIB Securities as the designated broker, who is able to facilitate the trading of securities listed on the Thailand Stock Exchange through arrangements with a SET member broker.

Once all KEX DIS Shares are transferred out of Account 600 under a Qualifying Minority Shareholder’s name, that Account 600 will automatically fall away and no account closure instruction needs to be given by the Qualifying Minority Shareholder. To transfer KEX DIS Shares from Account 600to a securities brokerage account, aQualifying MinorityShareholderwill needto provide MIBSecurities with a duly completed and signed application for securities transfer in the prescribed form and his/her/its identification document.

8. REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISTRIBUTION
KEX was incorporated as a private limited company in 2014todevelop expressdelivery business inThailand. In 2020, the Company spun off the business of KEX for a separate listing on the Thailand Stock Exchange in order to focus on the continued expansion of its own business and afford KEX independent access to capital markets.
Further to theCompany’s disposal of certain companies engaging in express delivery businesses as disclosed in its announcement dated 25 July 2023, the Distribution reinforces the Company’s strategy of focusing on its core business of integrated logistics and international freight forwarding while streamlining its express delivery businesses, with an aim to enhancing its overall performance and prospects.
Through the Distribution, FHHL and Qualifying Minority Shareholders who opt for Option 1 (Shares) can directly participate in and support the development of KEX’s business as well as enjoy full autonomy in choosing their exposure to it over time. For other KLN Shareholders, the tender of their KEX DIS Shares in the KEX Offer will provide an immediate realisation of value through cash.
After completion of the Distribution, the Company will no longer hold any interest in KEX. KLN Shareholders and potential investors will then be better positioned to differentiate and value the separate businesses of KLN Group and KEX Group based on their respective business models, revenues and earnings. Going forward, KLN Group can fully focus on its own strategic plans and growth opportunities. It will also allow the Company to reduce exposure to market volatilities unrelated to its principal business, which the Board trusts will provide cost savings in the long-term.

Upon completionofthe Distribution,theCompany will no longer hold any KEXShares and KEX will ceaseto be an indirect subsidiary of the Company.

The actual financial effect as a result of the Distribution will depend on the market price of KEX Shares and the net asset value of KEX Group as at the Distribution Closing Date and therefore, the actual financial impact arising from the Distribution on KLN Group may only be determined following the completion of the Distribution.

Such figure has been rounded down to the nearest whole number of KEX Shares based on the distribution ratio of 0.5019 of a KEX Share for every one KLN Share held (the “ Distribution Ratio ”).
-
Such figure represents the arithmetic difference between (i) the total number of KEX Shares to be distributed under the Distribution and (ii) the number of Offeror’s KEX DIS Shares, without taking account of fractional entitlements which may arise from rounding adjustments made to the Distribution Ratio and the entitlements of individual KLN Shareholders when applying the Distribution Ratio.
-
Column (ii) does not take into account KEX DIS Shares which are attributable to Non-qualifying Shareholders.

Purpose of Form
An individual or entity (Form W-9 requester) who is required to file an information return with the IRS must obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) which may be your social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN), to report on an information return the amount paid to you, or other amount reportable on an information return. Examples of information returns include, but are not limited to, the following.
-
Form 1099-INT (interest earned or paid)
-
Form 1099-DIV (dividends, including those from stocks or mutual funds)
-
Form 1099-MISC (various types of income, prizes, awards, or gross proceeds)
-
Form 1099-B (stock or mutual fund sales and certain other transactions by brokers)

-
Form 1099-A (acquisition or abandonment of secured property) Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident
-
alien), to provide your correct TIN.
If you do not return Form W-9 to the requester with a TIN, you might be subject to backup withholding. See What is backup withholding, later.
Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)
Cat. No. 10231X
Page 2
Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)
By signing the filled-out form, you:
- Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a
number to be issued),
-
Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or
-
Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners' share of effectively connected income, and
-
Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting, is correct. See What is FATCA reporting, later, for further information.
Note: If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9.
Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are:
• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien;
- A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States;
• An estate (other than a foreign estate); or
• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).
Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax under section 1446 on any foreign partners’ share of effectively connected taxable income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, the rules under section 1446 require a partnership to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the section 1446 withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid section 1446 withholding on your share of partnership income.
In the cases below, the following person must give Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States.
- In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the entity;
• In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the trust; and
- In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of the trust.
Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities).
Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a “saving clause.” Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.
If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items.
- The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under
which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.
-
The treaty article addressing the income.
-
The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the
saving clause and its exceptions.
- The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption
from tax.
- Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article.
Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption.
If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233.
Backup Withholding
What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS 24% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding.
You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return.
Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:
-
You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,
-
You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for
Part II for details),
-
The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN,
-
The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or
-
You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).
Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.
Also see Special rules for partnerships, earlier.
What is FATCA Reporting?
The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all United States account holders that are specified United States persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting code, later, and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.
Updating Your Information
You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you no longer are tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account; for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies.
Penalties
Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.
Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.

Specific Instructions
Line 1
You must enter one of the following on this line; do not leave this line blank. The name should match the name on your tax return.
If this Form W-9 is for a joint account (other than an account maintained by a foreign financial institution (FFI)), list first, and then circle, the name of the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of Form W-9. If you are providing Form W-9 to an FFI to document a joint account, each holder of the account that is a U.S. person must provide a Form W-9.
a. Individual. Generally, enter the name shown on your tax return. If you have changed your last name without informing the Social Security Administration (SSA) of the name change, enter your first name, the last name as shown on your social security card, and your new last name.
Note: ITIN applicant: Enter your individual name as it was entered on your Form W-7 application, line 1a. This should also be the same as the name you entered on the Form 1040/1040A/1040EZ you filed with your application.
b. Sole proprietor or single-member LLC. Enter your individual name as shown on your 1040/1040A/1040EZ on line 1. You may enter your business, trade, or “doing business as” (DBA) name on line 2.
c. Partnership, LLC that is not a single-member LLC, C corporation, or S corporation. Enter the entity's name as shown on the entity's tax return on line 1 and any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.
d. Other entities. Enter your name as shown on required U.S. federal tax documents on line 1. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. You may enter any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.
e. Disregarded entity. For U.S. federal tax purposes, an entity that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner is treated as a “disregarded entity.” See Regulations section 301.7701-2(c)(2)(iii). Enter the owner's name on line 1. The name of the entity entered on line 1 should never be a disregarded entity. The name on line 1 should be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S. owner's name is required to be provided on line 1. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity's name on line 2, “Business name/disregarded entity name.” If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9. This is the case even if the foreign person has a U.S. TIN.
Line 2
If you have a business name, trade name, DBA name, or disregarded entity name, you may enter it on line 2.

These codes apply to persons submitting this form for accounts maintained outside of the United States by certain foreign financial institutions. Therefore, if you are only submitting this form for an account you hold in the United States, you may leave this field blank. Consult with the person requesting this form if you are uncertain if the financial institution is subject to these requirements.

Line 5
Enter your address (number, street, and apartment or suite number). This is where the requester of this Form W-9 will mail your information returns. If this address differs from the one the requester already has on file, write NEW at the top. If a new address is provided, there is still a chance the old address will be used until the payor changes your address in their records.
Line 6
Enter your city, state, and ZIP code.
Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below.
If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN.
If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN.
Note: See What Name and Number To Give the Requester, later, for further clarification of name and TIN combinations.
How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local SSA office or get this form online at www.SSA.gov . You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/Businesses and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. Go to www.irs.gov/Forms to view, download, or print Form W-7 and/or Form SS-4. Or, you can go to www.irs.gov/OrderForms to place an order and have Form W-7 and/or SS-4 mailed to you within 10 business days.
If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply for a TIN and write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester.
Note: Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.
Caution: A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8.
Part II. Certification
To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if item 1, 4, or 5 below indicates otherwise.
For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the person identified on line 1 must sign. Exempt payees, see Exempt payee code, earlier.
Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in items 1 through 5 below.

3. Real estate transactions. You must sign the certification. You may
cross out item 2 of the certification.
4. Other payments. You must give your correct TIN, but you do not
have to sign the certification unless you have been notified that you have previously given an incorrect TIN. “Other payments” include payments made in the course of the requester’s trade or business for rents, royalties, goods (other than bills for merchandise), medical and health care services (including payments to corporations), payments to a nonemployee for services, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, payments to certain fishing boat crew members and fishermen, and gross proceeds paid to attorneys (including payments to corporations).

Secure Your Tax Records From Identity Theft
Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information such as your name, SSN, or other identifying information, without your permission, to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.
To reduce your risk:
-
Protect your SSN,
-
Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and
-
Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.
If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS notice or letter.
If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable credit card activity or credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 1-800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039.
For more information, see Pub. 5027, Identity Theft Information for Taxpayers.
Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a systemic problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059.
Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes. Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft.
