Right to ask questions

Shareholders may ask written questions to the Board of Directors ahead of the Extraordinary General Meeting of 9 May 2018 by notifying such questions to NV Bekaert SA no later than Thursday 3 May 2018.

A timely asked written question will be answered at the Extraordinary General Meeting of 9 May 2018:

• if the question relates to the agenda items of the Extraordinary General Meeting;
• to the extent that communication of data or facts would not be detrimental to the business interests of NV Bekaert SA or to any confidentiality commitments made by NV Bekaert SA or its Directors; and
• if the shareholder asking the question is registered as a shareholder on the record date of Wednesday 25 April 2018 and notifies NV Bekaert SA no later than Thursday 3 May 2018 that he wishes to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting.

An oral question asked at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be answered subject to the same conditions.

Each written question must be addressed to one of the following addresses:

No right to add agenda items and file resolution proposals

The agenda of the Extraordinary General Meeting of 9 May 2018 must be identical to the agenda of the first Extraordinary General Meeting held on 28 March 2018.

Shareholders holding alone or together at least 3% of the share capital of NV Bekaert SA are therefore not entitled to add items to the agenda of the Extraordinary General Meeting of 9 May 2018 nor to file resolution proposals relating to items already on such agenda.
