Conflicts of Interest
General
In case of a conflict of interest of a Director, it being understood that the mere fact that the Director serves
as a Director of a shareholder or of an affiliated company of a shareholder shall not constitute a conflict of
interest, he must inform the other Directors of the respective board of such conflict and may not take part
in the vote relating to the subject matter of the conflict of interest but will be counted in the quorum in
any given meeting of the respective board. A Director having a conflict on any item on the agenda must
declare this conflict to the chairman before the meeting of the respective board starts.
