On 30 October 2025, Agricultural Bank of China Limited (the Bank) convened a board meeting in Beijing with 13 directors entitled to attend. Due to other work arrangements, the Chairman designated the Vice Chairman to attend and vote by proxy on his behalf, ensuring full representation across the 13 valid votes.

The Board approved a plan for financial bond issuance and endorsed an issuance quota covering capital instruments and total loss-absorbing capacity non-capital bonds. Both items will proceed for consideration at the Bank’s shareholders’ meeting.

The Board also reviewed and approved several nomination proposals. One highlighted the re-nomination of an independent non-executive director candidate, subject to necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals. The Bank reiterated that these nominations fully comply with requirements under relevant regulations and the Articles of Association.

Additionally, adjustments to special committee memberships were confirmed, including the election of a new member to the Strategic Planning and Sustainable Development Committee and the County Area Banking Business and Inclusive Finance Development Committee, effective upon regulatory confirmation and final shareholder approval of the respective director appointments.

Finally, the Bank announced that its 2025 second extraordinary shareholders’ meeting is scheduled for 28 November 2025 in Beijing, with detailed information and materials to be made available in a separate circular.
