The undersigned hereby confirms that he/she has been informed of the way in which the agent will vote in the absence of instructions on his/her part.
More particularly the proxy holder can participate in any other general meeting with the same agenda in case this general meeting could not make resolutions in a legally valid manner or would not be held at the abovementioned date, without prejudice to the conditions referred to in article 536, §2 of the Companies Code which must be met by the shareholder in order to be allowed to the general meeting, as described in the invitation to the general meeting.
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.
The shareholder can only indicate one person as a proxy holder for a certain general meeting. By way of derogation the shareholder (i) can appoint separate agents for each type of shares he holds and for each of his securities accounts, if he has shares of CP INVEST in more than one securities account and (ii) any other person qualified as a shareholder who, however, acts on behalf of other natural or legal persons by virtue of his/her profession can grant a proxy to each of those other natural or legal persons or to a third party appointed by them.
In order to be represented by an agent the written proxy must be completed and signed in compliance with the proxy form established by the Board of Directors, a model copy of which will be available at the Company's office (Horstebaan 3, 2900 Schoten) or can be downloaded from the Company's website (www.carepropertyinvest.be). This proxy must be provided to the Company as described below.
Notification of the proxy to the Company must be made in writing (Horstebaan 3, 2900 Schoten or fax +32 3 222 94 95). This notification may also be made electronically at the address: [email protected].
The Company must have received the proxy at the latest on Thursday 10 May 2018.
Care Property Invest NV Horstebaan 3 2900 Schoten BE 0456 378 070 - LPR Antwerp Public RREC under Belgian law
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 536, §2 of the Companies Code which must be met to be allowed to the meeting (as described in the invitation).
Without prejudice to article 549, second paragraph of the Companies Code, the agent will vote according to the instructions of the shareholder who appointed him. The proxy holder must keep a register of voting instructions for at least 1 year and confirm at the request of the shareholder that he abided by the voting instructions.
In case of a potential conflict of interests between the shareholder and the proxy holder he appointed, as stipulated in article 547bis, §4 of the Companies Code, the proxy holder must make public the exact facts which are of importance to the shareholder to assess whether there is a risk that the proxy holder serves any other interest than the shareholder's interest. Moreover, the proxy holder can only vote on behalf of the shareholder on the condition that he has specific voting instructions for every item on the agenda.
As indicated in the invitation to the Annual General Meeting (and under the conditions mentioned therein) shareholders who alone or jointly hold 3% of the Company's share capital can place items on the agenda of the Annual General Meeting and submit proposals for a resolution (relating to topics to be dealt with included or to be included in the agenda) until Tuesday 24 April 2018 the latest (article533ter of the Companies Code). The topics to be dealt with and the accompanying proposals for a resolution which are added to the agenda, if any, will be made public in compliance with the conditions of the Companies Code (as indicated in the invitation). In such case the Company will simultaneously make a form available to its shareholders on its website, which can be used to vote by proxy, completed with the additional topics to be dealt with and the accompanying proposals for a resolution placed on the agenda, if any, and/or merely with the formulated proposals for a resolution, if any. The proxies made known to the Company prior to the publication of a completed agenda, will remain valid for the topics to be dealt with included in the agenda for which they are valid, on the understanding that the proxy holder, for the topics to be dealt with included in the agenda for which new proposals for a resolution have been submitted, can derogate from instructions of the principal during the meeting, if respecting these instructions could prejudice the principal's interests. The proxy holder must inform the principal thereof
As regards new topics to be dealt with which would be included in the agenda, if any, the principal must make a choice:
□ The proxy holder is authorised to vote on new topics to be dealt with which have been included in the agenda.*
[OR]
□ The proxy holder must abstain from voting on the new topics to be dealt with which have been included in the agenda.*
