The aforementioned deadline applies for shareholders who are legal entities and must submit their representation  documents in accordance with the law.
Only those who qualify as shareholders on the aforementioned Record Date are entitled to participate and vote in the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting. Shareholders not complying with the provisions of article 28a of C.L. 2190/1920 may participate in the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting only after the Meeting has authorized them to do so.
The exercise of the above rights does not entail pledging of shares, or any other similar process restricting the possibility of sale and transfer of shares during the period between the Record Date and the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting.

B. PROCEDURE FOR VOTING BY PROXY
Shareholders may participate in the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting and may either vote in person or by proxy holders. Each shareholder may appoint up to 3 proxy holders. However, if a shareholder has shares of the Company held in more than one securities account, the above limitation shall not prevent the shareholder from appointing a separate proxy holder for each of the securities account, where shares are held. A proxy holder, acting on behalf of several shareholders, may cast votes differently in respect of shares held by each shareholder represented. Legal entities may participate in the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting by appointing up to 3 individuals as proxy holders.
The proxy holder is obliged to disclose to the Company, before the commencement of the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting, any event which might be useful to the shareholders in assessing the risk of the proxy holder pursuing any interest other than the interest of the represented shareholder. A conflict of interest within this context may in particular arise where the proxy holder:

(i) Is a controlling shareholder of the Company, or is another entity controlled by such shareholder;
(ii) Is a member of the Board of Directors or of  the management of the Company, or of a controlling shareholder or another entity controlled by the controlling shareholder;
(iii) Is an employee or an auditor of the Company, or of a controlling shareholder or an entity controlled by such shareholder;
(iv) Is a spouse or relative (1st degree) with an individual referred to in points (i) to (iii).

The appointment and the revocation of the appointment of a proxy holder shall be made in writing and shall be served to the Company following the same procedure, at least 3 days prior the date of the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting; this provision applies in the case of a Repeat Special Minority Shareholders Meeting.
 
The proxy form will be available to the shareholders in electronic form on the website of the Company (www.helpe.gr). These forms, completed and signed by the shareholder must be submitted to the Company’s Shareholders Department: Chimarras 8A ,15125, Maroussi, Athens, Greece (Contact Person: Mrs. Chrisoula Gonianaki) or by fax: +30 210 6302986, +30 210 6302987 or by email: [email protected], or [email protected], at least 3 days before the date of the Special Minority Shareholders Meeting.
