9.2 In furtherance of the resolution referred to in Clause 9.1, the Company hereby grants effective as of the time of the IPO and subject to completion of the IPO the Call Option to the Voting Depository and the Voting Depository hereby accepts the Call Option from the Company.

10 EXERCISE OF THE CALL OPTION

10.1 The Call Option is continuous in nature and can be exercised repeatedly on more than one occasion regardless of previous issuances and transfers of Special Voting Shares to the Voting Depository pursuant to earlier exercises of the Call Option and regardless of any subsequent transfers back to the Company and/or cancellation of such Special Voting Shares by the Company.

10.2 The Voting Depository may acquire the Special Voting Shares pursuant to the Call Option either, at the Company’s discretion, by subscribing to new to be issued Special Voting Shares or by acquiring Special Voting Shares from the Company held as treasury stock, in accordance with Clause 12.

10.3 The Voting Depository must exercise the Call Option to acquire such number of Special Voting Shares that are not already held by the Voting Depository as required to issue a corresponding number of DRs to Qualifying Shareholders pursuant to the Voting Depository Articles and the Terms.

10.4 Only the Voting Depository can exercise the Call Option. The Call Option is exercised by sending an Exercise Notice to the Company, specifying the number (not exceeding the Maximum Number) of Special Voting Shares in respect of which the Call Option is exercised on that occasion.

10.5 When exercising the Call Option, the Voting Depository may rely on the Recorded Information available at that time in order to establish the Maximum Number. If any part of the Recorded Information is inaccurate or incomplete at the time of the Voting Depository exercising the Call Option on the relevant occasion, the Company shall, immediately after having become aware that the Voting Depository has relied on inaccurate or incomplete Recorded Information:

a. update and correct the Recorded Information as appropriate and inform the Voting Depository of the actual composition of the Company’s authorised and issued share capital at that time, as well as the actual nominal value of all Shares at that time; and

b. allow the Voting Depository to adjust the relevant Exercise Notice within two (2) Trading Days after having informed the Voting Depository as described in paragraph a., before issuing the relevant number of Special Voting Shares in accordance with Clause 12.

11 EXERCISE PRICE

11.2 The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to maintain the special capital reserve at a sufficient level to allow for any issue of Special Voting Shares pursuant to this Agreement to be charged against such reserve.

11.3 If the level of the special capital reserve is insufficient to allow the relevant Exercise Price to be fully charged against it, the Company may require the Voting Depository to pay the Exercise Price or a part thereof in cash and the Voting Depository shall pay the relevant amount out of its available funds, use its reasonable efforts to obtain bank financing or financing from the Company or its subsidiaries in order to be able to pay the relevant amount to the Company or pay the relevant amount by other means.

12 ISSUE AND TRANSFER OF SPECIAL VOTINGS SHARES

Upon an exercise of the Call Option in accordance with Clause 10 and, in case of an issue of Special Voting Shares, subject to the relevant Exercise Price having been charged against the Company’s reserves in accordance with Clause11.1 or otherwise having been paid, the Parties shall procure that the relevant number of Special Voting Shares are at the Company’s discretion:

a. issued to the Voting Depository by executing a Call Option Deed of Issue; and/or

in each case as soon as possible but ultimately within five (5) Trading Days after the exercise of the Call Option.

13 ISSUE OF DRS

Upon an issue or a transfer of Special Voting Shares to the Voting Depository in accordance with Clause 12, the Voting Depository shall, by executing a DR Deed of Issue, issue for no consideration (om niet) a corresponding number of DRs to the Founding Shareholder or other Permitted Transferee entitled thereto, all in accordance with the Voting Depository Articles and the Terms.

14 RETURN OF SPECIAL VOTING SHARES AND POWER OF ATTORNEY

14.1 The Voting Depository shall, promptly and in any event within three (3) Trading Days, transfer to the Company for no consideration (om niet) the Special Voting Shares for which the corresponding DRs have been cancelled in accordance with the Terms, or otherwise for which no DRs are issued by the Voting Depository. In deviation of the previous sentence, the Company and the Voting Depository may, subject to the restrictions pursuant to applicable law, agree that the Company shall pay a consideration for any Special Voting Shares so transferred to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the making of any such agreement shall be at the absolute discretion of both the Company and the Voting Depository.

14.2 The Voting Depository shall refrain from exercising any meeting and voting rights attached to the Special Voting Shares that are to be transferred back to the Company pursuant Clause 14.1. Likewise, and

without prejudice to the generality of Clause 19, the Voting Depository hereby irrevocably waives (doet afstand van) all economic rights and entitlements whether actual or contingent (if any) attached to any such Special Voting Shares, including profit rights, rights to distributions, payments out of any of the Company’s reserves, rights to payments in relation to capital reductions and payments of liquidation proceeds.

14.3 The Voting Depository hereby grants to the Company an irrevocable power of attorney to transfer the Special Voting Shares in accordance with Clause 14.1. The Company, in its capacity as attorney under the power of attorney described in this Clause 14.3, may act as counterparty of the Voting Depository. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Clause 14.3 is granted with full power of substitution.

15 UNDERTAKING TO INCREASE AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL

The Company undertakes to propose to the General Meeting an amendment of the Company Articles to increase the maximum number of Special Voting Shares that may be issued under the Company’s authorised share capital if it appears from the Founders Share Register that in the foreseeable future, but in any event within the next three months the Company will need to issue Special Voting Shares in excess of the maximum number of special voting shares allowed under the Company’s authorized share capital at that time.

16 DE-REGISTRATION

16.1 Any Founding Shareholder or other Permitted Transferee may at any time request (if such Founding Shareholder or other Permitted Transferee is a XX Xxxxxx itself) or cause any of its Permitted Intermediate Holding Companies holding DRs to request the Company to be de-registered from the Founders Share Register for some or all of its Qualifying Shares by submitting a duly completed de-registration form as attached hereto as Annex K (a “De-Registration Request”).

16.2 Upon a XX Xxxxxx having submitted a De-Registration Request, such XX Xxxxxx is deemed to have waived its rights to use its Voting Proxy or to give Voting Instructions in respect of the Special Voting Shares that are stapled to the relevant Qualifying Shares.

16.3 Upon receipt of a duly completed De-Registration Request, the Company

shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that the Ordinary Shares concerned will be moved to the regular trading system as soon as reasonably possible but in any event within five (5) Trading Days of receipt of the De-Registration Request.

16.4 Upon a cancellation of any DRs by the Voting Depository in accordance with the Terms in respect of a XX Xxxxxx, the Company shall immediately de-register from the Founders Share Register the relevant Qualifying Shares held by such XX Xxxxxx.
