the absence of a General Meeting or should the Meeting fail to take a valid decision after the second quorum, all interested parties can bring proceedings for the company to be wound
up. This is also the case if the provisions of paragraph 2 herein above have not been applied. In all cases, the Court can grant the company a maximum period of six months to remedy the
situation. However, the court cannot declare the company to be dissolved, should the situation be remedied on the day of the ruling.

aim of the liquidators is to sell off, even amicably, all tangible and intangible assets of the company and pay off debts.

include those of handling, agreeing to and granting all guarantees, even mortgage securities, and if need be, agreeing to release of liens with or without payment.

Extraordinary General Meeting is necessary in the case of a global sale of assets, contribution of the assets to another company, mergers, spin-offs and modifications of
the Articles for the requirements of the liquidation.

In
the event of death, resignation or impediment of the liquidator(s), the Meeting convened by the most diligent shareholder shall deal with his or their replacement.

or the Auditors, or between the shareholders themselves in relation to the business, shall be settled by the competent Commercial Courts.
