Annual General Meeting 2021

In light of the prevailing government guidelines on public gatherings, we are proposing to host our AGM as a combined physical and electronic meeting.

D etails of how to join the meeting and the web-portal can be found on pages 24 and 25 of the Notice of AGM.

Within the Lumi web-portal, shareholders will be able to view a live video feed of the AGM, submit voting instructions and questions in writing or ask them through an audio line on the day. Questions can be submitted in advance of the meeting by sending an email to scplc.agm@sc.com .

Given the evolving nature of the situation, the format of the AGM may change following the publication of the Notice of AGM. We will update our shareholders as soon as reasonably possible regarding any such change. As such, please monitor our website sc.com/agm and regulatory news services for any updates.
