SHAREHOLDERS’ REGISTER.

Article 5

 

  1. The Company’s management board keeps a register in which the names, addresses and e-mail addresses of all the shareholders are recorded, stating the date on which they acquired the shares, the date of acknowledgement or service, the type or the designation of the shares, and the amount paid up on each share. If a shareholder is not bound by an obligation or requirement under these Articles of Association within the meaning of Section 2:192(1) of the Dutch Civil Code or by a price determination arrangement in these Articles of Association within the meaning of Section 2:192a(2) of the Dutch Civil Code, that fact must be stated. If no voting right is attached to shares pursuant to an arrangement in these Articles of Association on the grounds of Section 2:228(5) of the Dutch Civil Code, the shares are registered as non-voting shares. The names and addresses of parties that have a usufruct or pledge in respect of shares must be recorded in the register, stating the date on which they acquired the right, the date of acknowledgement or service, and also stating which rights attached to the shares are vested in them. The register must state the names and addresses of the holders of depositary receipts for shares that carry the right to attend meetings, stating the date on which the right to attend meetings was attached to their depositary receipts and the date of acknowledgement or service. Insofar as share certificates may be issued, this will be recorded in the Articles of Association. The issue and withdrawal of a share certificate must also be recorded in the shareholders’ register.

 

  2. Shareholders and other parties whose data are recorded in the register pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Article must provide the management board in a timely manner with the information required. If an electronic address is also notified for the purpose of being recorded in the shareholders’ register, that notification also constitutes consent to be sent all notifications and statements and notices convening meetings in an electronic form. In these Articles of Association “in writing” means: by post, by fax, by e-mail or by any other customary means of communication by means of which text can be transmitted.

 

  3. The register must be updated on a regular basis. Any discharge from liability granted for payments not yet made must also be recorded in the register.

 

  4. On request the Company’s management board must provide a shareholder, a usufructuary, a pledgee and a holder of a depositary receipt for a share that carries the right to attend meetings in or pursuant to these Articles of Association for no consideration with an excerpt from the register regarding his right to a share or a depositary receipt. If the share is subject to a usufruct or a pledge, the excerpt must state who has the rights referred to in Sections 2:197, 2:198 and 2:227 of the Dutch Civil Code.

 

3


  5. The Company’s management board must make the register available at the Company’s office for inspection by the shareholders, the usufructuaries and the pledgees who have the rights referred to in Section 2:227(2) of the Dutch Civil Code and the holders of depositary receipts issued for shares that carry the right to attend meetings in or pursuant to these Articles of Association. The information in the register regarding not fully paid-up shares is available for public inspection; a copy of or excerpt from that information is provided at no more than cost.

  2. Each shareholder, with the exception of the Company if it is the holder of shares in its own capital, has a pre-emptive right on the issue of shares pro rata to the aggregate value of his shares.

 

  3. The provisions of paragraph 2 apply accordingly to the granting of rights to purchase shares but do not apply to the issue of shares to someone who exercises a previously acquired right to purchase shares.

 

  4. The pre-emptive right can be limited or excluded, each time for one single issue, by the body authorised to issue shares.

 

  5. The issue of a share furthermore requires a deed intended for that purpose, executed before a civil-law notary practising in the Netherlands, to which deed the Company and the persons acquiring shares must be parties.

 

  6. A share premium may only be paid when shares are issued or with the approval of the body that is authorised to decide to issue shares. Every time a share premium is paid this body can decide that the paid share premium or a part thereof will be added as a share premium reserve for shares of one type or designation.

PAYMENT ON SHARES.

Article 8

 

  1. On the purchase of a share its nominal value must be paid up. It may be stipulated that the nominal value or part of that value need not be paid until a specified period of time has passed or until the management board calls in that amount.

TRANSFER OF SHARES AND RESTRICTED RIGHTS.

Article 13

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

Article 20

 

  1. The financial year coincides with the calendar year.

 

  2. Each year, within five (5) months after the end of the financial year, unless that term is extended by no more than six (6) months by the general meeting on the grounds of special circumstances, the Company’s management board must draw up financial statements and make them available for inspection by the shareholders at the Company’s office. Within that period the Company’s management board must also make the annual report available for inspection by the shareholders, unless Sections 2:396(7) or 2:403 of the Dutch Civil Code apply.

 

  3. The financial statements must be signed by the managing directors; if the signature of one or more of them is missing, that fact and the reason must be stated.

 

  4. The Company must give instruction to have the financial statements audited by an accountant who is authorised by law, unless the Company is exempted from doing so by law. The general meeting is authorised to give that instruction. If it fails to do so, the management board has that authority.

  6. The accountant who has audited the financial statements reports on his audit to the management board.

 

  7. The Company must ensure that the drafted financial statements, the annual report and the information that must be added to them pursuant to Section 2:392(1) of the Dutch Civil Code are available at its office from the convening of the general meeting at which they are to be addressed. The shareholders and the other parties entitled to attend meetings can inspect the documents there and obtain free copies of those documents.

 

  8. If the Company has been exempted from the obligation referred to in paragraph 4, the general meeting may nevertheless decide that the obligation to audit will be complied with or that another form of assessment of the financial statements and financial accounts will be performed.

ADOPTION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS; DISCHARGE; PUBLICATION.

Article 21

 

  1. The general meeting adopts the financial statements.

The management board adopts the annual report.

 

  2. Adoption of the financial statements does not discharge a managing director, unless the provisions of paragraph 3 apply. By separate resolution the general meeting can discharge a managing director for the management conducted in the financial year in question, insofar as that management is apparent from the financial statements or has been made known to the general meeting.

 

  3. If all the shareholders are also managing directors of the Company, signing of the financial statements by all the managing directors also serves as adoption of the financial statements, provided that all the parties entitled to attend meetings have been given the opportunity to take note of the drafted financial statements and have agreed to this manner of adoption. Adoption of the financial statements in this manner discharges the managing directors.

 

  4. The Company is required to publish its financial statements within eight (8) days after their adoption, unless a statutory exemption applies.

PROFIT.

Article 22

 

  1. The general meeting is authorised to allocate the profit determined by the adoption of the financial statements and to decide on distributions insofar as its equity exceeds the reserves that must be maintained by law or pursuant to these Articles of Association.

 

  2. A resolution pertaining to distribution has no consequences until the management board has given its approval. The management board may withhold its approval only if it knows or reasonably ought to foresee that the Company will not be able to continue to pay its immediately payable debts after the distribution.

 

  3.

If the Company cannot continue to pay its immediately payable debts after a distribution, the managing directors who knew or reasonably ought to have foreseen that at the time of the distribution are jointly and severally liable towards the Company for the deficit resulting from the distribution, plus the

 

8


  statutory interest from the day of the distribution. Section 2:248(5) of the Dutch Civil Code applies accordingly. A managing director who proves that he or she is not to blame for the distribution made by the Company and that he or she has not been negligent in taking measures to ward off the consequences is not bound. A person who received the distribution while he knew or reasonably ought to have foreseen that the Company would be unable after the distribution to continue to pay its immediately payable debts is required to pay the deficit resulting from the distribution, up to the amount of the value of the distribution received by him, plus the statutory interest from the day of the distribution. If the managing directors have paid the claim pursuant to the first sentence, the payment referred to in the fourth sentence is made to the managing directors pro rata to the part that has been paid by each of the managing directors. The debtor does not have the right of set-off in respect of a debt on the grounds of the first or fourth sentence. This paragraph does not apply to distributions in the form of shares in the Company’s capital or additional payment on not fully paid shares.

 

  4. For the purposes of paragraph 3 a person who determined or co-determined the Company’s policy is put on a par with a managing director as if he were a managing director. The claim cannot be filed against the administrator appointed by the court.

 

  5. In calculating each distribution the shares held by the Company in its own capital are not counted. In calculating the amount that will be paid on each share only the amount of the obligatory payments on the nominal value of the shares is taken into account. It is possible to depart from the provision of the second sentence of this paragraph with the approval of all the shareholders.

 

  6. A shareholder’s claim regarding a distribution of profits expires five (5) years after the day of the resolution to distribute the profit.

GENERAL MEETING.

Article 23

 

  1. During each financial year at least one general meeting must be held or at least once a resolution must be adopted without a meeting being held in accordance with Article 28, unless the financial statements have been adopted in accordance with the provisions of Article 23(3).

 

  2. 2. Other general meetings will be held as often as the Company’s management board considers necessary. The management board is authorised to convene a general meeting. The management board is required to convene a general meeting if one or more shareholders solely or jointly representing at least one-hundredth (1/100th) of the issued capital request(s) the convening of a general meeting in writing, accurately stating the subjects to be addressed. The management board must take the necessary measures to ensure that the general meeting can be held within four (4) weeks after the request, unless a compelling interest of the Company so opposes. If the management board fails to comply with the request, the shareholders referred to in the second sentence can be authorised at their request by the preliminary relief judge of the court to convene the general meeting. For the purposes of this paragraph, shareholders are put on a par with other persons who have the right to attend meetings.

  7. The meeting must be convened no later than on the eighth (8th) day before the day of the meeting.

 

  8. The general meetings are held in the municipality in which the Company has its registered office under these Articles of Association. The general meeting appoints its own chairperson. Until that moment the meeting is chaired by a managing director or, if no managing director is present, by the most senior person present at the meeting in terms of age.

 

  9. The managing directors have an advisory vote in that capacity at the general meeting.

 

  10. If shares, restricted rights to shares or depositary receipts issued for shares form part of a community of property, the joint owners can be represented towards the Company only by one person to be designated in writing.
