3 If no voting instructions are given for an agenda item, the undersigned will be deemed to give the specific instruction to the proxy holder to vote "ABSTAIN" on the proposed resolution in respect of that agenda item.

AGM could not make resolutions in a legally valid manner or would not be held at the abovementioned date or place, without prejudice to the conditions referred to in Article 7:134, §2 of the BCCA which must be met by the shareholder in order to be allowed to the general meeting, as described in the invitation convening the AGM.

To that end the proxy holder can pass and sign all deeds, documents, minutes, attendance lists, registers, confirmations, notifications and any other document, vote or abstain during the vote on all proposals to modify, delete or add an item on the agenda, elect domicile, subrogate and in general do everything which is useful or necessary to perform this proxy, insofar as necessary with a promise of ratification.

The undersigned hereby undertakes to indemnify the proxy holder for any damage he/she might incur as a result of any action undertaken when performing this proxy, on the condition, however, that he/she respected the limits of his/her powers. Furthermore, the undersigned undertakes not to claim the nullity of any resolution approved by the proxy holder and not to claim any compensation from him/her, on the condition, however, that the latter respected the limits of his/her powers.

The proxy holder benefits from the same rights as the thus represented shareholder, and more particularly the right to take the floor, to ask questions during the General Meeting and to exercise the right to vote.

In order for a shareholder to be represented by a proxy, a power of attorney must be completed and signed in accordance with the form of proxy established by the board of directors. The shareholder may complete the proxy via the Lumi Connect Platform or download it from the Company's website (www.carepropertyinvest.be). The proxy must be registered via the Lumi Connect Platform or arrived at the Company via email ([email protected]) no later than 25 May 2023.

In addition, shareholders who wish to be represented will be required to comply with the admission and confirmation procedure specified in the invitation. For shareholders who choose to use the Lumi Connect Platform, this allows them to complete and submit proxies electronically. In this case, no original must be delivered before the start of the AGM.

To calculate the rules regarding quorum and majority account will only be taken of proxies submitted by shareholders meeting the conditions referred to in article 7:134, §2 of the BCCA which must be met to be allowed to the AGM (as described in the invitation).

Without prejudice to article 7:145 of the BCCA, the proxy holder will vote according to the instructions of the shareholder who appointed him. The Company shall keep the proxy with voting instructions at its registered office for at least one year.

In the event of a potential conflict of interest as stipulated in article 7:143 §4 of the BCCA between the shareholder and the proxy holder appointed by him, the proxy holder must disclose the precise facts that are of interest to the shareholder in order to assess whether there is a risk that the proxy holder would pursue any interest other than the interest of the shareholder. In addition, the proxy holder may vote on behalf of the shareholder only on the condition that he has specific voting instructions for each item on the agenda.

As indicated in the invitation convening the AGM (and according to the modalities indicated therein), shareholders owning solely or jointly 3% of the Company's share capital may place items on the agenda of the AGM and submit proposals for resolution (with respect to items included or to be included on the agenda) until 9 May 2023 at the latest (article 7:130 of the BCCA). The subjects to be dealt with and the corresponding proposed resolutions that would, if any, be added to the agenda will be published in accordance with the modalities of the BCCA (as indicated in the invitation). If applicable, the Company will simultaneously make available to its shareholders, on its website, a form that can be used for voting by proxy, supplemented with the additional agenda items for the AGM to be discussed and the corresponding proposed resolutions that would be added to the agenda,

and/or merely with the proposed resolutions that would be formulated regarding existing agenda items. Proxies notified to the Company prior to the publication of a supplemented agenda shall remain valid for the agenda items to be addressed to which they apply with the understanding that, for agenda items to be addressed for which new resolutions have been formulated, the proxy holder may, during the meeting, deviate from any instructions given by the shareholder, if the execution of such instructions could prejudice the interests of the shareholder. The proxy must notify the shareholder accordingly.

Regarding new items that would be added to the agenda, if any, the shareholder must make a choice:*

The proxy holder is authorized to vote about new agenda items that would be added to the agenda.
