On October 20, 2017, Highpower International, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its Annual Meeting of Stockholders scheduled for December 2, 2017 (the “Annual Meeting”). Due to an administrative error, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding on October 4, 2017, the record date for the Annual Meeting, was incorrectly stated in the Proxy Statement as 15,361,000. The correct number of shares outstanding as of October 4, 2017 is 15,476,000, all of which are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The shares of common stock beneficially owned by the Company’s directors and executive officers under “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” on page 23 of the Proxy Statement remain the same and any changes to amounts of percentage ownership as a result of using the correct number of outstanding shares are immaterial.
