PROXY

ANNUAL GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING TUESDAY 10 MAY 2022 AT 6 P.M.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

  • In order to be valid, your completed and signed proxy should reach the Company by Wednesday, 4 May 2022.
  • For dematerialised shares, a bank certificate confirming the number of shares you hold on Tuesday 26 April 2022 (midnight, Belgian time) (registration date) should also be attached.
  • Please send us this completed and signed form accompanied by the bank certificate if applicable - by e-mail ([email protected]).
  • Proxy forms that reach us too late or that do not comply with the required formalities will be refused.
  • Apart from the exceptions provided for by law, you can only appoint one (1) proxy holder.
  • You do not necessarily have to indicate the name of a proxy holder. If you do not appoint a proxy holder, the Company will nominate one of its members to represent you. Typically, this will be someone belonging to the management or the bureau of the meeting, and therefore someone who potentially falls under the conflict of interest regulation of article 7:143, §4 BCAC, a.o. because they are a member of the board of directors or a staff member. This is also the case for the preferred proxy holder indicated in the invitation. In such a case, you must therefore provide specific voting instructions for each proposed resolutions, failing which the proxy holder deemed to have a conflict of interest will not be able to participate in the vote in your behalf.
