INTRODUCTION

Pursuant to Rule 2.07A of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") (the "Listing Rules") that came into effect on 31 December 2023 and the articles of association of China Power International Development Limited (the "Company"), the Company has adopted electronic dissemination of its future corporate communications (the "Corporate Communications"1) to the Shareholders2 and will only send Corporate Communications in printed form to the Shareholders upon request.

ARRANGEMENTS

  • Actionable Corporate Communications3

    The Company will send the Actionable Corporate Communications to Shareholders individually in electronic form by email. If the Company does not possess the email address of a Shareholder or the email address provided is not functional4, the Company will send the Actionable Corporate Communication in printed version together with a reply form for soliciting the Shareholder’s functional email address to facilitate electronic dissemination of Actionable Corporate Communications in the future.

  • Corporate Communications

    The Company will make the Corporate Communications available on its website (http://www.chinapower.hk) and the Stock Exchange's website (https://www.hkexnews.hk).

    A notice of publication of the Website Version5 of Corporate Communications, in both English and Chinese, will be sent by the Company to Shareholders by email or by post (only if the Company does not possess the functional email address of a Shareholder) on the publication date of the Corporate Communications.

PROVISION OF SHAREHOLDER'S EMAIL ADDRESS TO THE COMPANY

To facilitate electronic communication by email, the Company recommends you to complete and return the below request form by post or by hand 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, Wan Chai, Hong Kong or by email to chinapower.ecom@computershare.com.hk.

Please be reminded that it is the responsibility of the Shareholders to provide a functional email address. If the Company does not possess the email address of a Shareholder or the email address provided is not functional, the Company will follow the arrangements set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 above. Shareholders should promptly advise the Share Registrar of any change in their email addresses. 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".

REQUEST FOR PRINTED COPY OF CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS AND ACTIONABLE CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS

If you are a registered shareholder of the Company:

For those Shareholders who wish to receive printed versions of all future Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications, or who may encounter difficulties accessing the Company’s website, the Company will, upon receipt of the duly executed Request Form (registered shareholders) 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. If the Company does not receive the request form mentioned in the foregoing, Shareholders will be considered to have agreed to receive Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications in the arrangements as set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 above. Please note that the request for printed versions of Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications will be valid for one year from the date of request unless revoked or superseded (whichever is earlier). A new written request will be required if a Shareholder prefers to continue receiving printed versions of future Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications thereafter.
