and appoints the following person as a proxy, charged with his/her representation at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, with right of substitution:

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….....

If no proxy holder has been filled in above, or if the designated proxy holder is not present at the Annual General Meeting, the chairman of the General Meeting will act as representative.The rules on conflicts of interest mentioned below shall apply whenever a potential conflict of interest arises on the part of the person designated as proxy holder. These rules shall apply in any case where the proxy holder is the chairman on duty. Smartphoto group NV therefore invites the shareholder to give specific voting instructions by ticking a box for each item on the agenda. If the shareholder has not given specific voting instructions for a particular agenda item included in this form, the shareholder will be deemed to have given specific voting instructions to the proxy holder to vote in favor of the approval of this item.

Please note: a potential conflict of interest occurs if:

One of the following persons is appointed as proxy holder (proxy): (i) the company (smartphoto group NV) 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 or of the management bodies of the company, of a shareholder controlling the company or of any other controlled entity as referred to in (i); (iii) an employee or the Statutory Auditor of the company, of a shareholder controlling the company or of any other controlled entity as referred to in (i); (iv) a person who has a parental relationship with a natural person as referred to in (i) to (iii) or who is the spouse or legally cohabiting partner of such a person or a relative of such a person.

In the event of a potential conflict of interest, the following rules will apply:

• the proxy holder (proxy) must disclose the precise facts that are of interest to the shareholder to assess whether there is a risk that the proxy holder may have any interest other than the interest of the pursued shareholder (Article 7:143, §4, 1° of the Belgian Companies and Associations Code). In this respect, a director would, in the absence of explicit voting instructions from the shareholder, be inclined to systematically vote in favor of the proposals made by the Board of Directors. The same applies to an employee of the company who, by definition, is in a subordinate relationship to the company;
• the proxy holder (proxy) may only vote on behalf of the shareholder if he has for each item on the agenda specific voting instructions (Article 7:143, §4, 2° of the Belgian Companies and Associations Code).

Voting instructions for existing agenda items:

The proxy holder will vote on behalf of the undersigned shareholder or abstain in accordance with the voting instructions below. If no voting instructions have been given for a resolution(s) mentioned below, or if, for whatever reason, the voting instructions given by the shareholder are not clear, the proxy holder will always APPROVE the vote proposal(s).

The agenda of the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is as follows:

• 1. Discussion of the consolidated annual accounts concerning the financial year closed on 31 December 2024.

'A short biography of the directors to be renominated can be found in the Annual Report (paragraph regarding the members of the Board of Directors) on www.smartphotogroup.com.'

'Fovea BV, permanently represented by Mrs Katya Degrieck, will have served as a non-executive director for more than 12 years from the date of her renomination. Since she meets all other criteria regarding independence, as set out in Article 7:87 of the Belgian Company and Associations Code and the Corporate Governance Code, and the Board of Directors confirms that it has no indication of any other element that would cast doubt on this independence, the director Fovea BV, as well as its permanent representative Mrs Katya Degrieck, is considered independent.

The General Meeting therefore establishes the independence of the director Fovea BV, as well as its permanent representative Mrs Katya Degrieck.'

Renomination of Pallanza Invest BV, permanently represented by Mr Geert Vanderstappen, for a period of 1 year, and determination of remuneration.
