Interim dividend for the six | ||
months ended 30 September | JPY6.00 or HKD0.4320 | JPY1 to HKD0.0720 |

Record Date for Distributing Interim Dividend
The Interim Dividend will be payable to the Shareholders whose names appear on the Company's share register at the close of business on Monday, 14 December 2020.
In order for those Shareholders whose names have not been registered on the Company's share register to qualify for the Interim Dividend, all properly completed and duly stamped and executed transfer forms accompanied by the relevant share certificates should be lodged with the Company's share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at Shops 1712-1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong before 4:30 p.m. (Hong Kong time) on Monday, 14 December 2020.
Currency of Dividend Payments
Shareholders entitled to receive the Interim Dividend from the Company (other than CCASS Beneficial Owners) will have the option of electing to receive the Interim Dividend in either Japanese yen or Hong Kong dollars (to be converted by the Company based on the exchange rate as stated in the paragraph ''Exchange Rate'' below). The Company will announce the
3
detailed procedure for electing the currency for the Interim Dividend payable to the Shareholders on Monday, 14 December 2020.
Although CCASS Beneficial Owners are not recognized under the Companies Act as Shareholders unless they withdraw their Shares from CCASS and re-register themselves as Shareholders in the Company's share register, the CCASS Beneficial Owners are ultimate payees of the Interim Dividend and all CCASS Beneficial Owners will receive dividend payments in Hong Kong dollars from the Company.
Exchange Rate
Based on the average of the exchange rates (telegraphic transfer middle rates) published by Mizuho Bank Co., Ltd. for the five (5) business days immediately preceding 25 November 2020, the exchange rate for conversion of Japanese yen to Hong Kong dollars for the Interim Dividend to be distributed to the Shareholders in Hong Kong dollars is JPY1 to HKD0.0744.

The gross Interim Dividend amount in Hong Kong dollars per Share is approximately HKD0.2232 based on the exchange rate as stated above.
(2) Net Interim Dividend Amount
As detailed later in this announcement, the net Interim Dividend amount in Hong Kong dollars per Share will vary according to the type of the Shareholder, since the applicable withholding tax rates are decided based upon residence of each Shareholder, whether each is an individual or corporation and other factors. Any foreign exchange commission will not be applied to the Interim Dividend. Conversion of Japanese yen to Hong Kong dollars will be applied after the deduction of the applicable withholding tax amount.
(3) Rounding Effect
The final amount of the total net Interim Dividend amount actually received by each Shareholder might slightly differ from the amount based on the calculation method stated in (2) above due to the rounding effect in calculation of the amount thereof.

- Shareholders holding the Shares in their own names and outside CCASS residing in Japan do not have to apply for a refund of withholding tax in general. The Company will apply the applicable withholding tax rate under the Japanese tax law shown above.
In case any valid tax convention between Japan and a Shareholder's tax residence applies, the Shareholder may enjoy a reduced withholding tax rate. Set forth below is a table showing the maximum withholding tax rate applied pursuant to the Hong Kong-Japan Tax Convention for purposes of illustration.

The Hong Kong residents without a permanent establishment in Japan who are the Shareholders wishing to enjoy a reduced withholding tax rate under the Hong Kong-Japan Tax Convention, please refer to section E below for the required procedures to enjoy a reduced withholding tax rate. In case such Hong Kong resident Shareholders have not established their eligibility to the satisfaction of the NTA pursuant to the procedures as set out in section E below, they cannot enjoy a reduced withholding tax rate under the Hong Kong-Japan Tax Convention, and the Company will apply the withholding tax rate as described in the table "Shareholder holding the Shares in his/her own name and outside CCASS" above.
Shareholders residing outside Japan and without a permanent establishment in Japan who wish to enjoy a reduced withholding tax rate under any valid tax convention with Japan are strongly advised to consult their professional advisers as to the application of any valid tax
5
convention between Japan and their respective tax residences. The Company does not assume any responsibility to ensure withholding is made at the reduced convention rate or to ensure no withholding is made for Shareholders who would be so eligible under any applicable income tax convention.
- WITHHOLDING TAX APPLIED TO CCASS BENEFICIAL OWNERS General
Notwithstanding that CCASS Beneficial Owners are not recognized under the Companies Act as Shareholders, our tax adviser has confirmed that Japanese tax laws would recognize CCASS Beneficial Owners who hold their investments through CCASS, being the ultimate payees of any dividend, i.e. as tax payers. As such, the withholding tax rate applicable to the dividend paid to CCASS Beneficial Owners should, in principle, be the tax rate applicable to each CCASS Beneficial Owner on an individual basis in accordance with their identity, shareholding percentage and tax residence.
However, the Company is unable to apply a rate of withholding tax on an individual basis to CCASS Beneficial Owners in accordance with their identities, shareholding percentage and tax residences due to the inherent characteristics of CCASS. As a consequence, the Company will withhold the highest possible withholding tax under Japanese law on the dividends payable to CCASS Beneficial Owners.
Hong Kong resident CCASS Beneficial Owners
CCASS Beneficial Owners without a permanent establishment in Japan who are either residents in Hong Kong or corporations incorporated in Hong Kong will be subject to a withholding tax rate of 20.420%, which is the highest possible withholding tax rate under Japanese law. However, such Shareholders may claim a refund of taxes withheld in excess of the applicable rate as set out in the table below from the NTA after following the applicable filing procedures as set out in section F below.
