&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *(8) Luanne Lim Hui Hung is an executive director and chief executive of Hang Seng Bank.

Both Ms. Lim and HSBC Asia Pacific confirm that Ms. Lim is not acting in concert with HSBC Asia Pacific. Accordingly, the Hang Seng Bank Shares held by Ms. Lim will form part of the Code Disinterested Shares. However, in the light of her position held within the HSBC Group entities, Ms. Lim will abstain from voting at the Hang Seng Bank Court Meeting in respect of her own beneficial holdings in the Hang Seng Bank Shares.

 *Under the Scheme, part of the issued share capital of Hang Seng Bank will, on the Scheme Effective Date, be reduced by cancelling and extinguishing the Scheme Shares. Immediately after such cancellation and extinguishment, the issued share capital of Hang Seng Bank will be restored to the amount immediately before such cancellation and extinguishment by the allotment and issue by Hang Seng Bank to HSBC Asia Pacific (or its nominee) of such number of new Hang Seng Bank Shares as is equal to the number of the Scheme Shares cancelled and extinguished on the Scheme Effective Date. The reserve created in Hang Seng Bank's books of account as a result of the capital reduction will be applied in paying up in full the new Hang Seng Bank Shares so allotted and issued to HSBC Asia Pacific (or its nominee). The shareholding of HSBC Asia Pacific immediately upon the Scheme becoming binding and effective represents the HSBC Asia Pacific Non-Scheme Shares and the aforementioned new Hang Seng Bank Shares allotted and issued to HSBC Asia Pacific (or its nominee) as is equal to the number of the Scheme Shares cancelled and extinguished under the Scheme.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *(10) As of 12 December 2025, there were 667,335,960 Ordinance Disinterested Shares in issue (representing approximately 35.6304% of the total issued share capital of Hang Seng Bank), subject to the qualifications set out in this table.*
