SmarTone Telecommunications Holdings Limited (SmarTone) plans to overhaul its corporate governance framework by introducing a Third Amended and Restated Bye-laws, replacing the current Second Amended and Restated Bye-laws.

Key details: • Purpose of the change: – Align SmarTone’s constitutional documents with the latest Hong Kong legal and regulatory requirements governing uncertificated securities and the expanded paperless listing regime. – Incorporate related consequential and housekeeping updates.

• Approval process and timing: – The amendments require a special resolution by shareholders at the annual general meeting scheduled for 28 October 2026. – A detailed circular, including the full text of the proposed amendments and the AGM notice, will be dispatched to shareholders.

• Implementation: – If approved, the Third Amended and Restated Bye-laws will become effective immediately after the AGM resolution is passed.

Governance context: The proposed revisions demonstrate SmarTone’s intention to stay compliant with evolving market infrastructure and listing regulations while streamlining internal rules to support electronic securities issuance and trading.

The board, chaired by Mr. Kwok Ping-luen, Raymond, has authorised the release of this announcement, with Company Secretary Mr. Mak Yau-hing, Alvin signing on 30 September 2026.
