Pursuant to Rule 2.07A of the Rules Governing The Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Listing Rules”) under the expansion of paperless listing regime and electronic dissemination of corporate communications that came into effect on 31 December 2023, CANbridge Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted electronic dissemination of corporate communications (the “Corporate Communications”), which means 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 (a) the directors’ report, its annual accounts together with a copy of the auditors’ report and, where applicable, its summary financial report; (b) the interim report and, where applicable, its summary interim report; (c) a notice of meeting; (d) a listing document; (e) a circular; (f) a proxy form and (g) reply slips.
In this connection, the following arrangements have come into effect on 31 December 2023.
Arrangements
- Actionable Corporate Communications1
The Company will send the Actionable Corporate Communications to Shareholders2 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 functional3, the Company will send the Actionable Corporate Communications in printed form.
- Corporate Communications
The Company will make the Corporate Communications available on its website (www.canbridgepharma.com) and the Stock Exchange’s website (www.hkexnews.hk). Shareholders should actively check such websites for the Company’s latest Corporate Communications. Shareholders and investors who wish to be notified of the Corporate Communications published by the Company may subscribe for the News Alerts service on the Stock Exchange’s website.
Provision of Shareholder’s email address to the Company
In support of electronic communication by email, the Company recommends its Shareholders to provide the Company with their email address at any time in future by reasonable notice in writing to the Company’s share registrar (the “Share Registrar”), Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong or by email to cnb.ecom@computershare.com.hk.
It is the responsibility of Shareholders to provide email address that is functional. If the Company does not possess the email address of a Shareholder or the email address provided is not functional, the Company will act according to the above arrangements. The Company will be considered to have complied 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
For Shareholders who wish to receive a printed version of all future Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications or who, if for any reason, have difficulty accessing the Company’s website, the Company will, upon receipt of a written request from Shareholders to the Share Registrar or an email specifying name, address and request to cnb.ecom@computershare.com.hk, send future Corporate Communications and/or the relevant Corporate Communications (as applicable) to those Shareholders in printed form free of charge.
Please note that the preference in receiving Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications in printed form of a Shareholder will be valid unless being revoked or superseded or until being expired after one year from the date of receipt of instruction (whichever is earlier). Further request in writing will be required if a Shareholder prefers to continue receiving printed copy of future Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications.
