In the United States

Any securities described on this Website have not been, will not be, and are not required to be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “US Securities Act”), and may not be offered, sold or delivered within the United States (as defined in Regulation S under the US Securities Act), absent registration or an available exemption from registration under the US Securities Act.

It is expected that the securities will be issued in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the US Securities Act (the ‘‘Section 3(a)(10) Exemption’’). In order to qualify for the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption with respect to the securities issued pursuant to the Scheme, the Bank will advise the Cyprus Court that BOC Holdings will rely on the Section 3(a)(10) Exemption based on the Cyprus Court’s sanctioning of the Scheme, which will be relied upon by BOC Holdings as an approval of the Scheme following a hearing upon the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Scheme at which hearing all existing shareholders of the Group will be entitled to attend in person or through counsel to support or oppose the sanctioning of the Scheme and with respect to which notification has been or will be given to all such Group shareholders.
