COVID-19 and Participation at the AGM

The Company does not in any way wish to diminish the opportunity available to HTAL shareholders to exercise their rights and to vote, but is conscious of the pressing need to ensure the health and safety of shareholders and its team members at the AGM. Accordingly, there are a range of measures we encourage shareholders to adopt to ensure their participation in the AGM.

Attendance in person at the Company - 177 Pacific Highway, North Sydney

The AGM will be held at the Company's registered office at 177 Pacific Highway, North Sydney. The North Sydney venue has limited capacity. Further, due to COVID-19 and current Government restrictions, the Company is required to ensure compliance with the requirements for social distancing and will seek to comply with any applicable requirements and limitations that are in force at the time of the AGM in respect of any persons who seek to attend the AGM in person, including implementing enhanced hygiene requirements for anyone attending the AGM in person, which must be strictly followed to gain access to the venue. To the extent permitted or required by law, and in order to comply with Government restrictions, the Company reserves the right to deny entry into the AGM venue or require any person to leave the AGM venue so as to ensure the health and safety of attendees at the AGM. Refreshments will not be served.

As a result of these measures, it is recommended that shareholders register prior to attending the event in person. If shareholders wish to attend the AGM in person, please register at investors@hutchison.com.au. If legal restrictions impose a limit on the number of persons who may be present in person, admission to the AGM will be prioritised in the sequence in which shareholders have submitted their registrations.

If you are attending the AGM in person, please bring your Proxy Form with you to assist with your registration.
