KUKE MUSIC HOLDING LIMITED

(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)

(NYSE Ticker: KUKE)

 

Form of Proxy for Annual General Meeting

to be held on September 20, 2024

(or any adjourned meeting thereof)

 

Introduction

 

This form of proxy is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the board of directors of Kuke Music Holding Limited, a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”), of proxies for the annual general meeting of the Company (the “AGM”) to be held at 10:30 a.m. (or after the Class B Meeting, as defined in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting (the “AGM Notice”), whichever is later) on September 20, 2024 (Beijing time), and at any adjournment(s) thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying AGM Notice.

 

The board of directors of the Company has fixed the close of business on August 26, 2024 (Eastern Time) as the record date (the “Record Date”) for determining the shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the AGM or any adjournment thereof. Only holders of record of the Company’s ordinary shares at the close of business on the Record Date or their proxy holders are entitled to attend, and to vote at, the AGM and any adjournment thereof. Holders of the Company’s American depositary shares (the “ADSs”) representing the Company’s Class A ordinary shares are not entitled to attend or vote at the AGM. Instead, holders of record of ADSs at the close of business on the Record Date who wish to exercise their voting rights for the underlying ordinary shares must act through Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, the depositary of the Company’s ADS program.

 

In respect of the matters requiring shareholders’ vote at the AGM, each holder of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares is entitled to one vote per share, and each holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares is entitled to ten votes per share. The quorum of the AGM consists of one or more shareholder(s) present in person or by proxy or by duly authorized corporate representative where such shareholder is a corporation, together holding or representing not less than one-third of the voting power of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Company entitled to vote at the AGM. This form of proxy and the accompanying AGM Notice will be first sent to the shareholders of the Company on or about August 26, 2024.

 

The ordinary shares represented by all properly executed proxies returned to the Company will be voted at the AGM as indicated or, if no instruction is given, the holder of the proxy will vote the shares in his or her discretion. Where the chairman of the AGM acts as proxy and is entitled to exercise his discretion, he is likely to vote the shares FOR the resolutions. As to any other business that may properly come before the AGM, all properly executed proxies will be voted by the persons named therein in accordance with their discretion. The Company does not presently know of any other business that may come before the AGM. Any person giving a proxy has the right to revoke it by (i) submitting a written notice of revocation or a fresh proxy form, as the case may be, bearing a later date, which must be received by the Company no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the AGM or at any adjournment thereof, or (ii) by voting in person at the AGM.

 

To be valid, this form of proxy must be completed, signed and returned to the Company by email to ir@kuke.com as soon as possible so that it is received by the Company no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the AGM.
