Termination

CITIBANK, N.A. HEREBY GIVES NOTICE TO HOLDERS OF THE TERMINATION OF THE ADR PROGRAM EFFECTIVE AS OF THE TERMINATION DATE.

Pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Deposit Agreement, the Company and the Depositary have agreed to terminate the Deposit Agreement and the Company has directed the Depositary to implement a mandatory exchange of Shares for, and mandatory cancellation of, the ADSs. As a result of the termination of the Company’s ADR program in accordance with the Deposit Agreement, upon the Termination Date, holders of ADSs will have their ADSs automatically cancelled and would be entitled to receive the corresponding underlying Shares (the “Mandatory Exchange”) at a rate of one (1) Share for each ADS cancelled.

If you hold your ADSs as a beneficial owner through the systems of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and through your bank, broker or other nominee (“in street name”), it is expected that you will have your ADSs automatically cancelled and will automatically receive your Shares through the DTC account of your nominee without taking any action.

If you hold your ADSs as a registered holder in electronic form (non-certificated), it is expected that you will have your ADSs cancelled and will receive your Shares in book-entry form in the direct registration system (“DRS”).1 You will be contacted by Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (“Equiniti”), proximate to the Termination Date, with instructions on how to access your Shares following the Termination Date and your Shares will be reflected on a DRS statement issued by Equiniti following the Termination Date. You should contact Equiniti following the Termination Date if you have any questions.

If you hold as a registered holder with a physical ADR certificate representing your ADSs, the Shares to which you are entitled will be made available for delivery to you by Equiniti, upon surrender of your outstanding ADR certificate accompanied by appropriate documentation, including a letter of transmittal. Equiniti will contact you on or promptly following the Termination Date at your address registered in the books of the Depositary with additional information and instructions.

As a registered holder (whether certificated or electronic form), if you expect to transact in the Shares on or approximate to the Termination Date, consider moving your ADS position in street name with a broker in DTC in advance of the Books Closure Date to avoid delays in delivery. You are also encouraged to verify that your address on file in the records of the Depositary is current and accurate to receive communications and instructions from Equiniti without delay.

After effectuating the Mandatory Exchange, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement with respect to the ADSs and the Shares.

 

Date: July 29, 2026    Citibank, N.A., as Depositary

You may at any time after the Termination Date request a certificate representing your Shares by contacting Equiniti.
