A. MATTERS ON THE AGENDA OF THE GENERAL MEETING

At the General Meeting, the following matters will be considered:

6. Issuance of stock options

The Board of Directors proposes that stock options would be issued by the
Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders to the key employees of the
Componenta Group on the terms and conditions attached hereto. 

The Company has a weighty financial reason for the issue of stock options,
since the stock options are intended to form part of the incentive and
commitment program for the key employees. The purpose of the stock options is
to encourage the key employees to work on a long-term basis to increase
shareholder value. The purpose of the stock options is also to commit the key
employees to the Company. 

The maximum total number of stock options issued will be 10,000,000 and they
will be issued gratuitously. The stock options entitle their owners to
subscribe for a maximum total of 10,000,000 new shares in the Company or
existing shares held by the Company. 

The share subscription period for stock options will be 1 April 2020 - 31 March
2022. The subscription price for shares subscribed based on stock options will
be EUR 0.50 per share. The share subscription price is based on the fair value
of the share. The share subscription price will be credited to the reserve for
invested unrestricted equity. 

The Board of Directors will resolve on the distribution of stock options. The
Board of Directors may resolve on particular additional provisions concerning
the receipt of stock options. Stock options will be distributed only, if the
Company resolves to execute the planned financing arrangements. 

7. Authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide on a share issue and an
issuance of special rights entitling to shares 

The Board of Directors proposes to the General Meeting that the General Meeting
authorises the Board of Directors to resolve on an issuance of shares and an
issuance of special rights entitling to shares as referred to in Chapter 10,
Section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act in one or several instalments,
either against payment or without payment. 

The aggregate amount of shares to be issued or transferred based on the
authorization, including shares received based on special rights entitling to
shares, shall not exceed 100,000,000 shares. The authorization entitles the
Board of Directors to resolve on issuance of, for example, such special rights
that entitle their holder to receive new shares or the company's own shares for
consideration in such a manner that the subscription price of the shares is to
be set off against a receivable of the subscriber ("Convertible Bond"). The
Board of the Directors may resolve to issue either new shares or to transfer
treasury shares potentially held by the company. 

The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to resolve on all conditions
for the issuance of shares and the issuance of special rights entitling to
shares, including the right to derogate from the pre-emptive right of the
shareholders. The authorization is proposed to be used, for example, to
strengthen the balance sheet and financial position of the company. 

The authorization is proposed to be in force until the closing of the next
Annual General Meeting, however no later than 30 June 2017. The authorization
replaces the authorization of the Board of Directors to resolve on a share
issue and an issuance of special rights entitling to shares given by the Annual
General Meeting on 11 March 2015.
