- The Supervisory Board shall comprise such number of Investor Supervisory Directors as agreed between the Company and the Investor in the relationship agreement dated 15 June 2023.
- At least one Supervisory Director shall be a financial expert with relevant knowledge and experience of financial administration and accounting for listed companies or other large entities. Unless the Supervisory Board decides otherwise, the chairman of the Audit Com- mittee shall be a Supervisory Director who is a financial expert as referred to in the pre- vious sentence.
- The Chairman may not be a former Executive Director or an Investor Supervisory Direc- tor.
- Without prejudice to any restrictions under mandatory Dutch law, the number of mem- berships of supervisory boards of Dutch listed companies (including the Company) which a Supervisory Director may have, shall be limited such that the proper performance of his duties is assured and shall in any event not be higher than five, with chairmanship count- ing double.
- The Company endorses the importance of diversity in terms of, among other things, back- ground, age, gender, nationality, and experience. However, the importance of diversity, in and of itself, should never set aside the overriding principle that a Supervisory Director should always be recommended, nominated and appointed for being the "best man or woman for the job".
