Proposed resolution: The manager is granted a new authorization, taking into account the conditions and terms defined by law, to proceed to the redemption of treasury shares of the Company, subject to the following conditions:

  • This authorization is valid for a number of treasury shares that amounts maximum to the number of shares of which the acquisition would lead to reaching the 20% threshold of article 620, §1, first subparagraph, 2° of the Company Code, taking into account all redeemed and potentially still held shares by the Company and its direct subsidiaries;

  • Redeeming a share within the scope of this authorization needs to take place at a minimum price per share that corresponds to the lowest of the last twenty closing prices of the share of the Company on the regulated market where they are listed, before the redemption date, minus 15% and at a maximum price per share that corresponds to the highest of the last twenty closing prices of the share of the Company on the regulated market where they are listed, before the redemption date, augmented by 15%;

  • The remuneration for the redemption of these treasury shares cannot exceed the resources of the Company available for distribution in accordance with article 617 of the Company Code;

  • The redemption of the shares within the scope of this authorization will entail the immediate creation of an unavailable reserve 'redemption of treasury shares' of the size of the global acquisition value of the redeemed shares, and this by a deduction of the available reserve.

  • This authorization is valid for a term of 5 years as of the date on which this decision is approved.
