Shareholding capacity is evidenced by presenting a relevant written certificate issued by the aforementioned entity, or by direct online connection of the Company with the said entity’s files. Shareholders capacity must be effective (Date of Record), notably at the beginning of the fifth (5th) day prior to the date of the General Assembly of 26.06.2015 and the relevant written certificate regarding the shareholders capacity must be received by Company no later than the third (3rd) day prior to the date of the General Assembly.

Any shareholder failing to comply with the provisions of article 28a of codified law 2190/1920 may participate at the General Assembly only upon its permission. Exercise of these rights does not require blockage of the beneficiary’s shares or compliance with any other procedure restricting the ability to sell and transfer them during the period between the Date of Record and the date of General Assembly.

 PROCESS FOR EXERCISING VOTING RIGHTS BY PROXY

 A shareholder may attend the General Assembly and vote either in person or by proxy. Each shareholder may appoint up to three (3) proxies. Legal entities may participate at the General Assembly by appointing up to three (3) individuals as proxies. However, if a shareholder holds shares in a company, which appear in several securities accounts, said restriction will not prevent said shareholder from appointing different proxies in respect of the shares in each securities account in relation with the General Assembly. A proxy acting on behalf of several shareholders may vote differently for each shareholder. A shareholder proxy must disclose to the company, before the General Assembly begins, any specific event which may be useful to the shareholders in assessing the risk of the proxy serving interests other than those of the shareholder. In the sense of this paragraph, a conflict of interest may especially arise when a proxy:

a) is a shareholder controlling the company or is another legal entity or an entity controlled by that shareholder;

b) is a member of the board of directors or of the administration of the company or shareholder controlling the company in general, or another legal entity or an entity controlled by a shareholder who controls the company;

c) is an employee or auditor of the company or shareholder controlling the company, or of another legal entity or entity controlled by a shareholder who controls the company;

d) is spouse or first degree relative to one of the individuals referred to under (a) through (c) above.

The appointment and revocation of a shareholder proxy is made in writing and notified to the Company under the same form, at least three (3) days prior to the date scheduled for the General Assembly. The company will make available at website (www.ffgroup.com) a form which may be used for the appointment of proxy.
