The board of directors of the Company is pleased to invite its securities holders to attend the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of the Company, to be held on Wednesday, July 2, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. CET at the Company's seat, or at such other place as will be indicated prior to such time.
The Company will also set up a video conference to allow holders of securities of the Company who have duly registered for the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting to follow the meeting remotely and ask questions, as the case may be in writing, during the meeting. The modalities to attend the meeting via video conference will be communicated to the relevant securities holders in due time. The videoconference will not qualify as an electronic communication tool to attend and vote at the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting as referred to in Article 7:137 of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations (the “CCA”), but will be an extra facility for securities holders to follow the shareholders’ meeting. Holders of securities wishing to attend the meeting via video conference and also validly vote on the items on the agendas, are invited to exercise their voting rights prior to the shareholders’ meeting by following the rules set out in this convening notice, either by voting remotely by mail, or by giving a proxy to a representative of the Company.
In order to facilitate the keeping of the attendance list on the day of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting, the holders of securities issued by the Company and their representatives are invited to register as from 1:45 p.m. CET.
Agenda of the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting
| 1. | Adding paragraphs at the end of article 13 of the articles of association of the Company to introduce the right to nominate directors for shareholders having held at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of the Company in registered form continuously for a period of at least three (3) years |
Proposed decision: The shareholders’ meeting decides to add the following paragraphs at the end of article 13 of the articles of association of the Company:
“Article 13 COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
(…)
Any shareholder, or group of affiliated shareholders acting in concert, that has held (or will have held at the date of the relevant appointment) at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of the company in registered form continuously for a period of at least three (3) years calculated as per the date of the relevant director appointment (each such shareholder or group of shareholders referred to as a “Stable Shareholder”) shall have the right that at the annual shareholders’ meeting one (1) director (a “Stable Shareholder Director”) is appointed on its binding nomination. In case there are more than two (2) Stable Shareholders, only the two (2) largest Stable Shareholders shall have a binding nomination right.
The binding nomination right of the relevant Stable Shareholder shall also apply in case the mandate of the relevant Stable Shareholder Director becomes vacant. In such case the Stable Shareholder shall be entitled to request the board of directors to appoint, within fifteen (15) calendar days following the date on which the relevant Stable Shareholder has exercised this binding nomination right, a replacement Stable Shareholder Director on a provisional basis until the next shareholders’ meeting.
The binding nomination shall be submitted in writing by the relevant Stable Shareholder to the board of directors, together with any information that might be necessary or useful in view of the appointment of the Stable Shareholder Director, at least seventy-five (75) calendar days prior to the annual shareholders’ meeting which shall be asked to decide on the appointment of the director (or, in case of co-optation by the board of directors, within thirty (30) calendar days following the date on which the mandate of the relevant Stable Shareholder Director has become vacant). The board of directors may at its discretion waive this deadline.
Provided that the Stable Shareholder that made the relevant nomination still qualifies as a Stable Shareholder on the date of the annual shareholders’ meeting (or board meeting in case of co-optation) deciding on the relevant appointment, the nomination made by the relevant Stable Shareholder shall be binding and complied with when the annual shareholders’ meeting decides (or, in case of co-optation, the remaining directors decide) on the relevant appointment for which the relevant Stable Shareholder has exercised its binding nomination right in accordance with this article 13. In deviation hereof, the annual shareholders’ meeting (or the remaining directors in case of co-optation) shall not be obliged to comply with the relevant binding nomination if the proposed director appointment pursuant to the relevant binding nomination would result in the composition of the board of directors no longer meeting any mandatory minimum requirements imposed by article 7:86 or any other applicable article of the Code of Companies and Associations.”
