Minutes
The year 2021, on 20 May at 11.00 am, in 2000 Antwerp, Schaliënstraat 5, the Special General Meeting of Shareholders of Euronav NV (the "Company") met under the chairmanship of Mr. Carl Steen.
The meeting appointed Mr. Geert Asselman and Mr. Glenn Mariën as clerk.
Mr. Roeland Neyrinck is the secretary and joins and completes the bureau.
Mr. Hugo De Stoop, CEO and member of the Management Board (as permanent representative of Hecho BV) is also attending and Mrs. Lieve Logghe, CFO and member of the Management Board (as permanent representative of Tincc BV) as well as Mr. Egied Verbeeck, General Counsel and member of the Management Board (as permanent representative of Echinus BV) join the meeting by way of videoconference.
The Chairman refers to the urgent measures imposed by the Belgian Federal and Flemish authorities in the context of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and to ensure the health, the security and the wellbeing of the shareholders, the Supervisory Board has encouraged the shareholders to vote upfront by written proxy or by letter. Consequently limited physical attendance or access will be granted to the meeting room and the chairman will lead the meeting by way of videoconference. The formalities to participate to this meeting were set out in the convening notice and the relevant forms for voting by proxy or by letter.
The Chairman declared that the convocation notices prescribed by law were published in the following newspapers on 16 April 2021:
- Belgian Official Gazette
- De Tijd
The registered shareholders, the directors and the statutory auditor were convened by ordinary letter of 16 April 2021.
The convening notice and other meeting documentation have been made publicly available on the Company's website on 16 April 2021.
The following shall be deposited with the bureau in order to be checked by the clerks:
-
the proof copies of the newspapers in which the convocation notices to this meeting were published;
-
a copy of the convocation letter that was addressed to registered shareholders, the directors and the auditor;
-
the proof of registration of the shares of the shareholders who wish to participate in the general meeting;
-
the proxies and the attendance forms;
-
the voting letters;
-
the attendance list, including the register containing the identity and address of each shareholder who has indicated that he wishes to participate to the meeting, the number of shares registered on the registration date and the documents proving such registration.
The Chairman asked the clerks to initial these documents.
The register of registered shareholders is also at their disposal.
The Chairman proceeds to the determination whether the meeting is validly constituted.
The Chairman establishes that there are currently two hundred twenty million twenty four thousand seven hundred thirteen (220,024,713) shares (of which eighteen million three hundred and forty six thousand seven hundred and thirtytwo (18,346,732) treasury shares). From the attendance list and according to the determination of the secretary, it appears that the total number of shares actually admitted to the vote is ninety-two million nine hundred ninety-one thousand two hundred eighty-one (92,991,281).
Since this is a first meeting that decides on this agenda, the meeting has the right to validly deliberate and decide on the items on the agenda if at least fifty percent (50%) of the shares are present or represented at this meeting.
Consequently, the meeting is not validly constituted and is not authorized to deliberate and decide on the items on the agenda.
As stipulated in the above-mentioned convening notice, if the attendance quorum has not been reached at the first meeting, a new special general meeting will be held on Wednesday June 23, 2021 at 11:00 am at the same place, which meeting will validly deliberate and decide regardless the number of shares present or represented at this meeting.

Minutes SGM 20 May 2021
Since the attendance quorum has thus not been reached and the meeting has waived the reading of the minutes, the Chairman invites the clerks and the other members of the bureau who so wish, to sign them.
The session is closed at 11.05 a.m.
