hereunder), to the transferability of the Shares or to the exercise of the voting rights attached thereto. There is no cause of suspension of the voting rights attached to the Shares.

pledge of the Pledged Assets and to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement.

	 	(iv)	declaration of dividends; and 

  

	 	(v)	merger, split up, transfer of business or important assets, winding-up, liquidation, bankruptcy and collective proceedings. 

The above appointment of the Pledgee as attorney of the Pledgors is irrevocable. The Pledgee has the power of substitution, and may exercise
the voting rights as it sees fit and without regard to any instructions from the Pledgors. 
 With respect to matters other than those set
out in paragraphs (i) to (v) above, if an Enforcement Event that has occurred and so long as it is continuing, the Pledgors shall cast the votes attaching to the Shares in accordance with the Pledgee’s instructions, which instructions the

Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Secured Notes Indenture. 

  
 - 6- 

	7.2	Without prejudice to Clause 7.1, the Pledgee shall also be entitled (but shall have no obligation), upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event and as long as it is continuing, to forfeit and appropriate all or part of
the Pledged Assets and to apply the value thereof against the Secured Obligations. For the purposes of this application, the value of the Shares shall be deemed equal to the lesser of: 

 

	 	(a)	their book value (being, per Share, the net assets of the Company determined in accordance with Article 617 of the Company Code for the purposes of dividend declarations divided by the total number of outstanding
shares) as per the latest available non-consolidated balance sheet of the Company; and 

  

	 	(b)	their book value as per the non-consolidated balance sheet of the Company updated as of the date of such appropriation of the Shares (or the nearest date thereto as of which such update can practically be established).

 Unless the Pledgee waives the right to an update of the Company’s balance sheet, the Pledgors shall endeavour to obtain
that the Company draws up an updated balance sheet as required under paragraph (b). If the Pledgors fail to deliver to the Pledgee, within 45 days of the Pledgee’s request (which request may only be made after the occurrence of an Enforcement
Event and as long as it is continuing), such duly updated balance sheet accompanied with an unqualified audit report, the updated balance sheet may be drawn up by an independent firm of accountants of good international repute selected and
instructed by the Pledgee. The Pledgors shall procure that all necessary documents and data are made available by the Company to that firm of accountants. The updated balance sheet shall be drawn up using the same method as for “end of business
year” accounts, in particular as to pro rata accruals and depreciations, and shall be based on valuation rules duly adapted in accordance with accounting law in the event that the prospect of continuity of the business of the Company can
not be maintained. 
 The valuation of Pledged Assets other than the Shares, if any, shall be made in accordance with the above rules applied
mutatis mutandis. 
  

	7.3	The exercise by the Pledgee of the rights set out in this Clause 7 shall not be subject to prior notice nor authorisation from the courts. 

 

	8.	DISCHARGE OF THE PLEDGE 

  

	8.1	This pledge shall be discharged by release hereby granted by the Pledgee in accordance with Section 11.6 of the Secured Notes Indenture. 

 

	8.2	Any release of this pledge shall be null and void and without effect if any payment received by the Pledgee or any other Secured Party and applied towards satisfaction of all or part of the Secured Obligations
(a) is avoided or declared invalid as against the creditors of the maker of such payment, or (b) becomes repayable by the Pledgee to a third party, or (c) proves not to have been effectively received by the Pledgee or such other
Secured Party. 

  
 - 7- 

	9.	PLEDGEE’S DUTIES 

 The Pledgee shall not be liable for any acts or omissions with
respect to the Pledged Assets or the enforcement of this pledge, except in case of its gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Pledgee shall be under no obligation to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Pledged Assets against
any third parties but may do so at its option after any applicable grace periods have elapsed, and all expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be for the account of the Pledgors. If any such expenses are borne by the Pledgee, the Pledgors
shall on first demand reimburse the Pledgee therefor, and this reimbursement obligation shall be part of the Secured Obligations. The Pledgee is entitled to all the rights and protections granted to the Collateral Agent set forth in the Secured
Notes Indenture as if the same were set forth herein. 
  

	10.	RANKING 

 The security created pursuant to this Share Pledge Agreement shall rank pari
passu with the Pari Passu Share Pledge Agreement in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. 
  

	11.	EXPENSES 

 All expenses and duties in connection with this Agreement, in particular with
regard to the establishment and perfection of this pledge, its enforcement (including the valuation of the Shares for the purposes of Clause 7.2) and the granting of any release, shall be borne by the Pledgors. If any such expenses or duties are
borne by the Pledgee, the Pledgors shall reimburse the Pledgee therefor, in accordance with Section 7.6 of the Secured Notes Indenture. 
  

	12.	NOTICES 

 Any notice in connection herewith shall be made in accordance with
Section 12.1 of the Secured Notes Indenture. 
  

	13.	SEVERABILITY 

 The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions hereof shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or of any other provision hereof. 
  

	14.	INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT 

 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
Agreement, if any intercreditor agreement is entered into in accordance with Section 11.3 of the Secured Notes Indenture (including the Intercreditor Agreement), in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of such
intercreditor agreement (including the Intercreditor Agreement) and this Agreement, the provisions of such intercreditor agreement (including the Intercreditor Agreement) shall prevail. 

 

	15.	WAIVER 

 No failure on the part of the Pledgee to exercise, or delay on its part in
exercising, any right shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Pledgee of any right preclude any further or other exercise of such right or the exercise by the Pledgee of any other right. 

  
 - 8- 

	16.	TRANSFERABILITY 

 The benefit of this pledge and of this Agreement shall pass
automatically to any transferee of all or part of the Secured Obligations, irrespective of whether such transfer shall take place by way of assignment, novation by substitution of creditor or otherwise, or to any successor collateral agent or
co-collateral agent appointed in accordance with Section 11.1 or Section 7.7 of the Secured Notes Indenture. Such transferee, or successor collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall henceforth be regarded as the Pledgee, or a
co-Pledgee, for all purposes of this Agreement, and the transferor (or the original Collateral Agent) may transfer possession of the Pledged Assets to it. 
  

	17.	LAW AND JURISDICTION 

 This Agreement shall be governed by Belgian law. The parties agree
that any dispute in connection with this Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Brussels, without prejudice however to the rights of the Pledgee to take legal action before any other court of competent
jurisdiction. For the purposes of any legal action (including any appeal (recours / rechtsmiddel) and enforcement) in Belgium in connection with this Agreement, the Pledgor irrevocably elects domicile at the registered office from time to
time of the Company.
