Viet Nam Securities Depository and Clearing Corporation (VSDC) would like to announce the record date as follows:

- Execution rate: 6.93% (Shareholders are entitled to receive 693 new shares for every 10,000 shares they own)
- Principle of rounding and handling fractional shares: The plan to handle fractional shares, odd shares and undistributed shares when increasing charter capital through issuing common shares to pay dividend to existing shareholders (if any) is implemented as follows:
+ The number of new shares intended to be issued if not fully distributed (if any) will be distributed to the Trade Union of Bac A Commercial Joint Stock Bank.
+ The number of shares issued according to the right distribution ratio to each shareholder is calculated to an integer, the decimal part will not be rounded to 1 share. The fractional shares, the number of fractional shares arising (if any) in this case will be distributed to the Trade Union of Bac A Commercial Joint Stock Bank.
For example: Shareholder Nguyen Van A owns 12,894 shares on the record date. According to the exercise ratio, the number of shares that shareholder Nguyen Van A receives is calculated as 12,894 x 6.93% = 893.5542 shares. After rounding down to the unit, the number of shares that shareholder Nguyen Van A receives is 893 shares. The fractional number of shares due to rounding down to the unit (0.5542 shares) will be distributed to the Trade Union of Bac A Commercial Joint Stock Bank.
