|2. | The company shall maintain a separate dividend reserve for the special voting shares. The special voting shares shall not carry any entitlement to any other reserve of the company. Any distribution out of the special
voting shares dividend reserve or the partial or full release of such reserve will require a prior proposal from the board of directors and a subsequent resolution of the general meeting of holders of special voting shares.

allocation and addition pertains, then the amount to be allocated and added to the special voting shares dividend reserve in respect of these newly issued special voting shares shall be calculated as from the date on which such special voting shares
were issued until the last day of the financial year concerned. The special voting shares shall not carry any other entitlement to the profits.

|7. | The company shall only have power to make distributions to shareholders and other persons entitled to distributable profits to the extent the companys equity exceeds the sum of the paid-up portion of the share
capital and the reserves that must be maintained in accordance with provision of law. No distribution of profits may be made to the company itself for shares that the company holds in its own share capital.

The provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3 hereof shall apply mutatis mutandis.



|10. | The board of directors may determine that dividends or interim dividends, as the case may be, shall be paid, in whole or in part, from the companys share premium reserve or from any other reserve, provided that
payments from reserves may only be made to the shareholders that are entitled to the relevant reserve upon the dissolution of the company.

|11. | Dividends and other distributions of profit shall be made payable in the manner and at such date(s) - within four (4) weeks after declaration thereof - and notice thereof shall be given, as the general meeting of
shareholders, or in the case of interim dividends, the board of directors shall determine, provided, however, that the board of directors shall have the right to determine that each payment of annual dividends in respect of shares be deferred for a
period not exceeding five (5) consecutive annual periods.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12. | Dividends and other distributions of profit, which have not been collected within five (5) years and one (1) day after the same have become payable, shall become the property of the company.
