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

- Payment rate: 14%/share (Shareholders are entitled to receive 14 new shares for every 100 shares they own) based on the total number of treasury shares being 0 share and the number of outstanding shares (entitled) being 2,979,127,815 shares.
- Principle of rounding and handling some special cases arising from share issuance for raising share capital from owner's equity:
. Principle of rounding: to determine the number of shares allocated to existing shareholders, the number of shares will be rounded down to the whole number, i.e, the fractional share that is less than 1 will be rounded down to 0 and handled in accordance with "Principle of handling fractional shares, undistributed shares/unissued shares arising from share issuance for raising share capital from owner's equity".
For example: shareholder A who owns 82 shares is entitled to receive 82x0.14 = 11.48 shares. According to above principle, Shareholder A will receive 11 new shares and the 0.48 fractional shares will be handled in accordance with “Principle of handling fractional shares, undistributed shares/unissued".

. Principles of handling undistributed shares/unissued: In case the total number of shares allocated to existing shareholders and the total number of fractional shares arising is lower than the total number of shares issued in accordance with capital increase plan due to the rounding principle when calculating the allocation of bonus shares to each securities account of each shareholder at each securities company and due to any other reasons, this different number of shares is determined as the number of shares not fully distributed/issued, and handled according to "Principles of rounding and handling some special cases arising from share issuance for raising share capital from owner's equity".
