PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

In view of the ongoing novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and recent requirements for prevention and control of its spread, the Company will implement the following preventive measures at the AGM to protect attending Shareholders, staff and other stakeholders from the risk of infection:

  1. Compulsory body temperature checks will be conducted on every Shareholder, proxy and other attendee at the entrance of the AGM venue. Any person with a body temperature of over 37.4 degrees Celsius may be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue.
  2. All Shareholders, proxies and other attendees are required to complete and submit at the entrance of the AGM venue a health declaration form. Any person who does not comply with this requirement may be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue. Anyone subject to quarantine, has any flu-like symptoms or has travelled overseas within 14 days immediately before the AGM ("recent travel history"), or has close contact with any person under quarantine or with recent travel history will not be permitted to attend the AGM.
  3. All attendees are recommenced to wear surgical face masks inside the AGM venue at all times. To ensure compliance with the relevant government policies then in force, the Company may adopt other measures at the AGM as may be necessary to avoid over-crowding.
  4. There will be no corporate gifts, and no refreshments or drinks will be served.

To the extent permitted under law, the Company reserves the right to deny entry into the AGM venue or require any person to leave the AGM venue in order to ensure the safety of the attendees at the AGM.

In the interest of all stakeholders' health and safety and consistent with recent COVID-19 guidelines for prevention and control, the Company reminds all Shareholders that physical attendance in person at the AGM is not necessary for the purpose of exercising voting rights. As an alternative, by using proxy forms with voting instructions inserted, Shareholders may appoint the chairman of the AGM as their proxy to vote on the relevant resolutions at the AGM instead of attending the AGM in person.

The proxy form is attached to this circular for Shareholders who opt to receive physical circulars. Alternatively, the proxy form can be downloaded from the "Shareholders' Meeting" tab under the "Investor Relations" section of the Company's website at (www.sinotruk.com) and the website of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited at www.hkexnews.hk.
