The right as shareholder must be current on the 25.06.2011 (registration date), that is, at the beginning of the fifth (5th) day prior to the 30.06.2011 when the General Meeting is held and the respective affirmation or electronic confirmation regarding the shareholder right must be submitted to the Company by the 27.06.2011 at the latest, that is, the third (3rd) day before the General Meeting is held. As far as the

In case of non compliance towards the provisions of article 28a E.L 2190/1920, said shareholder can only participate in the General Meeting upon Company permission. It is noted that the practising of these rights (participation and voting) does not require the binding of the beneficiary’s shares or any other similar procedure, which limits the option to sell or purchase shares during the time period between the date of registration and the date the General Meeting is held.
Β. SHAREHOLDER MINORITY RIGHTS – (a) By a shareholders application representing one twentieth (1/20) of the deposited capital stock, the Company Board of Directors is obliged to include additional issues in the daily agenda of the General Meeting, if the application has been received prior to the
15.06.2011 that is, fifteen (15) days at least prior to the Regular General Meeting.

(b) By a shareholders application representing one twentieth (1/20) of the deposited capital stock, the Board of Directors makes available to shareholders, in accordance with the provisions of article 27, par. E.L 2190/1920, on the 24.06.2011 at the latest, that is, six (6) days at least prior to the General Meeting, decision plans on issues included in the initial or reviewed daily agenda, if the said application is submitted to the Board of Directors until the 23.06.2011, that is, seven (7) days at least prior to the date the General Meeting is held.

There is no obligation to provide information when the relevant information is already posted on the Company webpage, especially in the form of questions and answers. (d) Following an application submitted by shareholders representing one fifth (1/5) of the deposited capital stock, submitted to the Company until the 25.06.2011, that is, five (5) full days at least prior to the General Meeting, the Board of Directors is obliged to provide the General Meeting with information on the course of Company cases and on the Company’s financial status.

Each shareholder can appoint up to three (3) representatives. Legal persons participate in the Meeting by appointing as representatives up to three (3) natural persons.

A representative acting on behalf of more than one shareholder may vote on behalf of each shareholder separately. The shareholder’s representative is obliged to announce to the Company, before the General Meeting is held, any specific fact which may prove useful in assessing the risk that the representative will serve interests other than those of the represented shareholder.
