The Proxy Holder is only entitled to vote at the relevant general meeting for which the proxy is provided (or such subsequent meeting having the same agenda) and an Authorized Shareholder can only appoint one proxy to represent it.

Each Authorized Shareholder may act as a Proxy Holder for another Authorized Shareholder taking into account potential conflicts of interests and the obligation to act following written instructions of the proxy provider given in the Proxy Voting Form and Instructions (except the case where the Authorized Shareholder gave proxy to its Proxy Holder under the "Option A" of the Proxy Voting Form and Instructions).
