13.40 of the Listing Rules. No persons were indicated in the Circular that they intended to vote against, or to abstain from voting on, any of the Resolutions at the AGM.
DECLARATION AND PAYMENT OF DIVIDENDSThe Board is also pleased to announce that subsequent to the passing of resolution numbers 2 and 3 by the Shareholders at the AGM, the Dividends (to be rounded up to two decimal places, if necessary) are expected to be paid in cash on Friday, 16 June 2017, and the Dividend warrants will be despatched to the Qualifying Shareholders on the same date.
The Dividends will be payable in United States dollars (US$) save that those Shareholders with a registered address in Hong Kong will receive an equivalent amount in Hong Kong dollars (HK$) (to be rounded up to two decimal places, if necessary) which will be calculated at the US$:HK$ exchange rate of 1:7.788 as quoted to the Company by The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited at its middle rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the AGM. In relation to the Dividends payable to such Shareholders in Hong Kong dollars, it follows that the Final Dividend of US$0.00526 per Share will be converted into HK$0.04096 per Share (to be rounded up to two decimal places, if necessary) and the Special Dividend of US$0.01252 per Share will be converted into HK$0.09751 per Share (to be rounded up to two decimal places, if necessary).
