ARRANGEMENTS

  • Corporate Communications

    To promote paperless Corporate Communications, the Company will make the Corporate Communications available on its website (http://www.chinapower.hk) and the HKExnews website (https://www.hkexnews.hk).

    Shareholders could access both English and Chinese versions of all Corporate Communications through the Company’s website in the “Investor Relations” section and on the HKExnews website.

    As the Company is no longer required to notify shareholders upon publication of its Corporate Communications by way of website, for you to keep up-to-date with the publication of all future Corporate Communications, you are encouraged to subscribe for the News Alerts service in the Market Data section provided by The Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (https://www.hkex.com.hk) to receive instant notifications by emails or mobile alerts whenever the Company publishes its Corporate Communications.

  • Actionable Corporate Communications

    For Actionable Corporate Communications, the Company is still required to inform each of its shareholders individually in accordance with his/her indicated preference by email or by post pursuant to the Listing Rules.

    For this purpose, the Company recommends you provide your email address by returning the duly completed and signed Request Form by email to chinapower.ecom@computershare.com.hk or by post or by hands to the Company’s share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited (the “Share Registrar”) at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong.

    If the Company does not receive a functional email address from you, or until such time that the functional email address is provided to the Share Registrar, the Company will send the Actionable Corporate Communications in printed form to you by post at your address as appearing in the Company’s register of members maintained by the Share Registrar.

REQUEST FOR PRINTED COPY OF CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS

For those Shareholders who wish to receive printed versions of all future Corporate Communications, or who may encounter difficulties in accessing the document electronically via the Company’s website and the HKExnews website, the Company will, upon receipt of the duly executed Request Form by the Shareholder to the Share Registrar (at the address stated above) or by email to chinapower.ecom@computershare.com.hk, send future Corporate Communications to such Shareholders in printed form, free of charge.

Request Form (registered shareholders)

Request Form (non-registered shareholders)

Notes:

  • Corporate Communications refer to any documents 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 annual report, interim report, notice of meeting, listing document, circular and proxy form.

  • Holder(s) of the share(s) of the Company.

  • Actionable Corporate Communications refer to any corporate communication from the Company that seeks instructions from its securities holders on how they wish to exercise their rights or make an election as the Company's securities holders, including but not limited to, election forms in connection with a dividend payment, excess application forms in connection with a rights issue or open offer, applications forms for assured entitlement under an open offer, acceptance forms in connection with takeovers, mergers and share buy-backs, and provisional allotment letters in connection with a rights issue.

  • Please be reminded that it is the responsibility of a Shareholder to provide an email address that is functional. The Company will be deemed compliant with the Listing Rules if it sends Actionable Corporate Communications to the email address provided by a Shareholder without receiving any "non-delivery message".
