ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Person responsible for the Registration Document and information on the auditing of the Company’s financial statements

This type of General Meeting shall be held at least once a year, within the time period required by law and regulations, to approve the financial statements for the previous year. Ordinary General Meetings are only able to validly conduct business, when convened for the first time, if the shareholders attending the Meeting, represented by proxy or having voted by mail represent at least one-fifth of the total voting rights. No quorum is required when Ordinary General Meetings are convened for the second time. The Meeting issues decisions by simple majority of the votes of the shareholders present or represented by proxy holders, including the votes of shareholders who have voted by mail. ARTICLE 33 OF THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION – EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETINGS The Extraordinary General Meeting alone shall be authorised to amend the Articles of Association. However, it may not increase shareholders’ commitments, except in the case of transactions resulting from a duly completed reverse stock split. Extraordinary General Meetings are only able to validly conduct business, when convened for the first time, if the shareholders attending the Meeting or represented by proxy or having voted by mail represent at least one-quarter of the total voting rights, and one-fifth of the total voting rights when convened for the second time. If this latter quorum is not reached, the second meeting may be postponed to a date no later than two months after the date for which the second meeting was originally convened. For this postponed meeting, a quorum of one-fifth of the shares with voting rights shall also be required.

The Meeting issues decisions by a majority of two-thirds of the votes of the shareholders present or represented by proxy holders, including the votes of shareholders who have voted by mail, except as otherwise provided by law. ARTICLE 34 OF THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION – SPECIAL GENERAL MEETINGS When there are several categories of shares, no changes may be made to the rights of a given category of shares unless approved by an Extraordinary General Meeting open to all shareholders and also by a Special General Meeting of the holders of the category of shares in question. Special General Meetings are only able to validly conduct business, when convened for the first time, if the shareholders attending the Meeting or represented by proxy represent at least one-third of the total voting rights, and one-fifth of the total voting rights when convened for the second time. In all other respects, Special General Meetings are convened and conduct business in the same way as Extraordinary General Meetings. In the event of the issuance of bonds, the holders of these bonds are considered as a group, in accordance with legal requirements, for the defence of their shared interests. This group is represented by one or more representatives elected at a Bondholders’ Meeting. Should there be more than one group of bondholders, they may not transact business at the same Meeting. ARTICLE 35 OF THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION – BONDHOLDERS’ MEETINGS
