The notice for the General Shareholder's Meeting including a description of the formalities to participate in the Meeting is available on the website investors.mithra.com.

Exceptional organisational arrangements due to Covid-19

In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the protection measures adopted by the Belgian Government, such as limiting the number of people attending meetings and ensuring a distance of 1.5 meters between each person, may still be in application on May 20, 2021 for the ordinary and extraordinary shareholders' meetings. These measures are in the interest of the health of our shareholders, as well as of the Company's staff and other persons responsible for organizing the shareholders' meetings. Furthermore, it cannot be excluded that the Belgian government will prescribe additional measures.

Therefore, the Company recommends that Company's shareholders who wish to participate to the shareholders' meetings do not attend in person and use, to the extent possible, the right to vote by mail or by proxy with specific voting instructions for each proposed decision granted to Fanny Rozenberg, Secretary of the Board of Directors. The Company will only give access to the shareholders' meetings to security holders, proxies and all other persons in strict compliance with the governmental measures and recommendations applicable at the time of the shareholders' meetings. In addition, the Company's security holders are encouraged to exercise their right to ask written questions concerning agenda items of the shareholders' meetings'.

The Company will also set up a video conference to enable duly registered securities holders of the Company who have completed and returned the notice of participation to the Company, to remotely attend shareholders' meetings. Videoconferencing will not be considered an digital communication way for attending and voting at shareholders' meetings, as referred to in Provision 7:137 of the Companies and Associations Code, but will be an additional tool for securities holders to attend shareholders' meetings. The Company will closely monitor the situation and any applicable measure and may provide other relevant updates for the Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meetings on the Company's website (investors.mithra.com).

All procedures for attending the ordinary and extraordinary shareholders' meetings are indicated in the present meeting's invitation.
