DELAY IN DESPATCH OF CIRCULAR
The Company has applied to the Stock Exchange for a waiver from strict compliance with
Rule 14.38A of the Listing Rules and an extension of the despatch date of the Circular to a date on or before 30 April 2010.
Reference is made to the announcement issued by China Mobile Limited (the Company) on 10 March 2010 in relation to the subscription by China Mobile Group Guangdong Company Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, of 2,207,511,410 A Shares of Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co., Ltd. (SPD Bank) (the Announcement). Capitalised terms used herein shall have the same meanings as defined in the Announcement unless the context otherwise requires.
Pursuant to Rule 14.38A of the Listing Rules, the Company is required to despatch a circular (the Circular) to its shareholders within 21 days after publication of the Announcement, i.e. on or before 31 March 2010.
SPD Bank is a joint-stock commercial bank with its A Shares listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. As the audited financial results of SPD Bank for the year ended 31 December 2009 have not yet been published as at the date hereof, the Company requires more time for compiling the relevant disclosure in the Circular, including but not limited to the accountants report on SPD Bank for the three years ended 31 December 2007, 2008 and 2009. An application has been made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for a waiver from strict compliance with Rule 14.38A of the Listing Rules and an extension of the despatch date of the Circular to a date on or before 30 April 2010.
