Essex Bio-Technology proposes amendments to articles of association

Essex Bio-Technology Limited announced proposed amendments to its existing Articles of Association, aiming to adopt amended and restated articles. The changes are primarily driven by the latest regulatory updates, including those related to the expanded paperless listing regime and electronic dissemination of corporate communications as mandated by the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong. The amendments also incorporate changes related to treasury shares and further expansion of the paperless listing regime with effect from February 10, 2025. Shareholders will vote on the proposed changes at the upcoming annual general meeting (AGM), with a circular containing relevant details to be dispatched on April 7, 2025. Approval by shareholders at the AGM is required for the amendments to take effect.
