CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS
Corporate Communication refers to any document issued or to be issued by the Company for the information or action of holders of any of the Company’s securities as defined in Rule 1.01 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Hong Kong Listing Rules”), including but not limited to: (a) an annual report; (b) an interim report; (c) a notice of meeting; (d) a listing document; (e) a circular; and (f) a proxy form.
Actionable Corporate Communication refers to any Corporate Communication that seeks instructions from the shareholders on how they wish to exercise their rights or make elections as shareholders.
The English and Chinese versions of our Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications are available on our website at www.biodlink.com and the HKEXnews website at www.hkexnews.hk. You may access the Corporate Communications by clicking the “Information Disclosure” under the “Investor Relations” section on our website.
In accordance with the Hong Kong Listing Rules, the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622 of the Laws of Hong Kong) and our Articles of Association, we will supply Corporate Communications to our shareholders electronically by making Corporate Communications available on our website and the HKEXnews website (“Website Version”).
We will not send a notice of publication of the Website Version of Corporate Communications to the shareholders. We encourage the shareholders to proactively monitor the availability of all future Corporate Communications on the websites and access the Website Version of Corporate Communications by themselves.
Registered Shareholders
We will send Actionable Corporate Communications to the registered shareholders individually in electronic form by email. If we do not possess the email address of a registered shareholder or the email address provided is not functional, we will send the Actionable Corporate Communication in printed form together with a request form for soliciting the registered shareholder’s functional email address to facilitate electronic dissemination of Actionable Corporate Communications in the future, until such time when the registered shareholder has provided a valid and functional email address to our Share Registrar.
We will send electronic copies of Corporate Communications to the registered shareholders’ email addresses and/or despatch printed copies of Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications to the registered shareholders’ addresses pursuant to their request free of charge.

If our non-registered holders whose shares (whether or not held through a broker or custodian) are held in the Central Clearing and Settlement System (CCASS) wish to receive Corporate Communications and Actionable Corporate Communications pursuant to the Listing Rules, they should liaise with their bank(s), broker(s), custodian(s), nominee(s) or HKSCC Nominees Limited through which their shares are held (collectively, the “Intermediaries”) and provide their email address(es) to the Intermediaries.
Non-registered holders may also request to receive electronic and/or printed copies of Corporate Communications.
