8. Miscellaneous

GENERAL MEETING

When shareholders add new items to the agenda, or file new resolutions regarding existing agenda items, the proxies that have been submitted to the company before the publication of the revised agenda, will remain valid for the existing agenda items.

By way of derogation from the previous paragraph, regarding existing agenda items for which new resolution proposals have been filed, the proxyholder can, during the meeting, deviate from the instructions given by the grantor of the proxy, if carrying out these instructions could harm the interests of the grantor. The proxyholder must notify the grantor of the proxy thereof.

In case new agenda items are being added at the request of shareholders:
the proxyholder is entitled to vote on the new items added to the agenda
the proxyholder should abstain
Date:
Only to be completed if the signatory is the shareholder himself (if not, see the boxes below):
Signature of the shareholder:
Only to be completed in case the shareholder is a legal person and the signatory is the legal representative of the shareholder:
Signature:
Name of the signator(y)(ies):

Only to be completed in case the signatory signs in the capacity of or on behalf of the proxy holder of the shareholder4:
Signature:
Name of the signator(y)(ies):
If the proxyholder is a legal entity: Name of the proxyholder-legal entity:
Title of the signator(y)(ies):
The signator(y)(ies) certif(ies)(y) being authorised to sign this proxy for and on behalf of the above-mentioned person.

The proxyholder is empowered to represent the undersigned at all meetings convened with the same agenda, to participate in all deliberations, to vote or abstain, to make all kinds of declarations, to accept or propose any amendment to the agenda, to sign all acts, minutes, attendance lists, registers and documents, to appoint a representative and in general carry out all that is necessary and useful for the execution of this proxy.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

In order to be valid, a copy of the proxy form must be submitted to the Company by e-mail (jelle.vandeputte@questforgrowth.com) or by post (Quest for Growth, for the attention of Jelle Van de Putte – Lei 19 box 3, 3000 Leuven) at the latest on Friday March 20, 2026 at 23h59 (Belgian time). The signed originals must be handed to the proxyholder, who must on the day of the meeting hand them to the representatives of the Company in order to be admitted to the meeting.

Shareholders are invited not to give a proxy without designation of special representative and not to give a proxy to the persons mentioned in the footnote below5.

⁵ In case you appoint one of the following persons as a proxyholder: (i) the company itself, an entity controlled by it, a shareholder controlling the company or any other entity controlled by such shareholder; (ii) a member of the board of directors, of the corporate bodies of the company, of a shareholder controlling the company or of any other controlling entity referred to under (i); (iii) an employee or a (statutory) auditor of the company, of the shareholder controlling the company or of any other controlling entity referred to under (i); (iv) a person who has a parental tie with a physical person referred to under (i) to (iii) or who is the spouse or the legal cohabitant of such person or of a relative of such person, then special rules in relation to conflicts of interest will apply. Proxy forms returned to the company without indicating a proxyholder will be considered to be addressed to the board of directors, thereby also creating a potential conflict of interests.

⁴ If the signatory of this proxy form is empowered to sign this form on behalf of the shareholder based on one or more underlying prox(y)(ies), the full 'chain of proxies' between the shareholder and the signatory of this form should be submitted to the company.
