A share certificate issued by KDC is a proof of the shareholder's title to shares in KDC. If a shareholder lost any share certificate, he/she should report to KDC’s registrar and apply for the issue of a replacement share certificate as soon as possible. A replacement share certificate will be issued subject to the fulfilment of such conditions as to evidence and provision of indemnity as KDC may consider appropriate, as well as payment of the scrip fee and relevant administration costs involved.
Pursuant to the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622 of the Laws of Hong Kong), KDC is required to publish notices in specified form before replacement of lost share certificates, which include, among other things, a Notice of Intention to Issue New Share Certificate, and a Notice of Cancellation of Original Share Certificate and Issue of New Certificate on its website. Shareholders may refer to the aforesaid notices set out below.
