In accordance with the law of 14 December 2005 on<br />
the abolition of bearer securities and the requirements<br />
contained under Article 96 of the law of 25 April 2007,<br />
the electronic form of <strong>Hamon</strong> shares was adopted by<br />
the Board of Directors at its meeting of 17 December<br />
2007 and the Company’s articles of association were<br />
subsequently amended. This process of de-materialization<br />
of shares runs from 1 January 2008 until 31<br />
December 2013.<br />
Since 1 January 2008, <strong>Hamon</strong> shares have been<br />
recorded either by an inscription in the Company’s<br />
shareholder register or via a share account at a financial<br />
institution. This means that shareholders with physical<br />
shares who wish to participate in the Annual General<br />
Meeting of 23 April 2013 should convert their physical<br />
shares into electronic shares. Similarly, those who have<br />
physical shares should deposit their shares in a share<br />
account in order to get the dividend paid directly to their<br />
bank account.<br />
The granting of share options<br />
There were no share options granted to employees in<br />
2012.<br />
