4.
Discussion of the Company’s dividend and reservation policy (discussion item)
The Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on its shares, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its shares in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and expansion of its business. Under Dutch law, the Company may only pay dividends to the extent its shareholders’ equity (eigen vermogen) exceeds the sum of the Company’s paid-up and called-up share capital plus the reserves required to be maintained by Dutch law or by the Company’s articles of association. Subject to such restrictions, any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Board and will depend upon a number of factors, including the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors the Board deems relevant. If and when the Company does intend to distribute a dividend, such dividend may be distributed in the form of cash only or shares only, through a combination of the foregoing (cash and shares) or through a choice dividend (cash or shares), in each case subject to applicable law.
5.
Instruction to Ernst & Young Accountants LLP for the external audit of the Company’s annual accounts for the financial year 2023 (voting item)
Under Dutch law, the General Meeting is, in principle, the corporate body authorized to annually appoint the external independent auditor for the audit of the Company’s annual accounts. Pursuant to a recommendation by the Company’s Audit Committee, it is now proposed to appoint Ernst & Young Accountants LLP as the external independent auditor for the audit of the Company’s annual accounts for the financial year 2023.
6.
