At HKEx’s annual general meeting held on 16 April 2014, Shareholders approved payment of the Final Dividend, as recommended by the Board, to Shareholders whose names appeared on HKEx’s register of members on the Record Date. The Final Dividend will be payable in cash with a scrip alternative under which eligible Shareholders may elect to receive the Final Dividend wholly or partly in the form of New Shares instead of in cash.
In addition, Shareholders have the right to choose to receive new Shares instead of cash for all future dividends to be paid by HKEx if a scrip alternative is available to them, until they revoke such election by notice in writing to the Share Registrar.
For the purpose of calculating the number of New Shares to be allotted, the Market Value for each New Share is the average closing price of one Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the five (5) consecutive trading days during the period between Tuesday, 22 April 2014 (being the first day that the Shares were traded ex-dividend) and Monday, 28 April 2014 (both dates inclusive), which is HK$140.22.
